'We're in pain and it's awful'
The heart-breaking stories of Nottinghamshire families ripped apart by knife crime will be added to an award-winning museum workshop. Family members who have had loved ones taken away by knife attacks will share their devastation through a series of videos at the National Justice Museum’s Choices and Consequences workshop, in High Pavement, Lace Market.
“Somebody made a decision to do that, and if they’d not they’d probably still be here today - living their life and having fun.” Lisa Kilkenny, whose 16-year-old son Joseph Whitchurch, from Stapleford, was killed in 2020, added: “If a knife is produced, there is somebody not going home. Broken bones mend, but to have this. It’s just a devastating effect.
“The young people came from different areas of Nottinghamshire and their deaths have had a profound rippling impact in their families, friendship groups and communities. It is so important that we funded this here because these are local Nottinghamshire stories - you may have seen the headlines but this is the impact knife crime has on families.
