Honouring Harvey Willgoose: A Commitment to Safer Schools

Remembering Harvey Willgoose

The unveiling ceremony was held yesterday at Meadowhall, Sheffield, to honour the memory of Harvey Willgoose, a 15-year-old schoolboy who was tragically murdered in 2025.

A Collaborative Tribute

We are proud to have collaborated with Harvey’s family on the creation of this mural. It is our sincere hope that this work will help to convey the vital message that there are no winners in knife crime.

Our Vision for School Safety

Our aim is to make our schools safe havens, not scenes of violence. Here is what we need now:

Education & Awareness

We must teach our youth the permanent consequences of violence. A split-second decision results in a lifetime of trauma, imprisonment, or the loss of a life.

Immediate Safety Measures

• Bleed Kits: These save lives in the critical minutes before help arrives. They must be as common as fire extinguishers in every hallway.
• Knife Arches: Deterrents at school gates should be standard. If they protect airports and courts, they should protect our children.

A Call to Action

Protecting our children is non-negotiable. We need all local Councils and school boards to prioritise these safety measures immediately.
