Donating to The Ben Kinsella Trust - February

Hello Everyone!

So as you may know from my last post, this month I donated to The Ben Kinsella Trust which works which you raise awareness for knife crime, and holds events of exhibitions in order to educate young individuals about the effects of street violence.

By donating to The Ben Kinsella Trust, events such as exhibitions and community days are able to take place in order for the effects of knife crime, and the consequences of street violence to be conveyed to young people, hopefully deterring them to be involved in any of these situations. Within the exhibitions held by the trust, young people are able to hear Ben Kinsella's story, as well as hearing from his family, and the experiences of other people in their position. They are also able to equate themselves on the facts and figures of street violence, as well as hear the realities of the law. Through the exhibitions, young people are able to learn how to make the right decisions and choices which allows them to steer clear of knife crime and street violence, and therefore helping to prevent individual's lives being put in danger. By the end of the exhibition, individuals are educated in where they can turn to for help around this subject, and what to do if they every feel that the experiences shared within the exhibition are relevant to themselves.

The trust also holds Community Open Days delivering tours to groups of young people within half terms and school holidays, in order to educate them about these very real subjects. The trust also advertises for local young people to take part as actors within their exhibitions, promoting young people to use their time to act on their talents, putting their energy into positive, and valuable use.

From the research I have done, The Ben Kinsella Trust is a positive organisation that educates young people on the realities of street violence such as knife crime, ensuring that the lives of young people being put in danger is avoided due to the work they carry out, and the people they work with. If you wish to donate to the trust, you can find the information to do this in my previous post!

Thank you all for your continuous support, and I will see you all again in early March to let you know my 'good deed' of the month!

Be Good!
