Knife amnesty to take place in Milton Keynes tomorrow allowing people to voluntarily dispose of weapons

    People will be able to legally dispose of weapons tomorrow (1st June) in Milton Keynes.

    Police will be hosting a knife amnesty at The Frank Moran Centre, Melrose Avenue, Bletchley, tomorrow between 10am and 2pm, in partnership with West Bletchley Parish Council.

    A knife amnesty bin allows people who own knives or weapons to voluntarily dispose of them in a safe and legal way. 

    The aims of the operation, which is taking place across Thames Valley, are to remove dangerous weapons from the streets, reduce knife crime and raise awareness of the dangers and consequences of carrying a knife.

    A permanent knife amnesty bin can also be found at Milton Keynes Police Station.

    A spokesperson for Thames Valley Police said: “We will be hosting more Knife Amnesty’s across Milton Keynes so please keep an eye out for our next event.”
