With the spate of high profile incidents and murders since the turn of the year, and the recent tragic death of Charlton fan Rob Knox in Sidcup, the club and Trust decided to deliver a “street violence ruins lives” campaign.
With resources being supported by the Metropolitan Police and in line with the national curriculum, the campaign is going to deliver directly into the classroom. Funding will be the key and therefore the request of supporters to pledge money into helping us to achieve this and seeking additional money from the private and public sector will allow the delivery of a sustainable programme.
The Trust have worked very closely with Sally and Colin Knox, Rob’s parents, to discuss the project. They are keen for more children to be signposted into positive activities, more help and information given to young people via role models which sport can deliver, more resources given to deliver early intervention programmes in schools, and hopefully begin to eradicate what is happening in our society and sadly affected their lives.
Our intention now whilst working closely with the Knox family and other key stakeholders is to carry this message into schools in Greenwich, Bexley and Kent. We want other football clubs to embrace this campaign, we want the community programmes up and down the country to be used to deliver education programmes, and we want the government to give organisations like us the funding to do this!
PLEASE PLEDGE MONEY TO HELP US DELIVER THIS IMPORTANT INITIATIVE IN SCHOOLS AND WORK WITH US TO DIVERT YOUNG PEOPLE INTO POSITIVE ACTIVITIES.
