National Monument Against Violence and Aggression.
A contemporary sculpture by artist Alfie Bradley and @britishironworkcentre
This sculpture stands at a height of 27 ft / 8.2m and is made up of 100,000 knives, both surrendered and seized.
The Angel Knife is a nationwide tour to highlight the anti-violence message behind it's construction
My heart goes out to all of those effected by violence and knife crime and hope the message is spread far and wide to put an end to this ever increasing and devastating epidemic.
If you haven't yet seen the Angel Knife, I urge you to visit. Stop. Look. See the emotion portrayed in the face of the sculpture and the hands, held out in both despair and hope. It is extremely powerful!
'Save a life, surrender your knife'
