Past Host Locations

If you can’t see your location on the list but enquiries have been made, the agreement has yet to be signed. In order to secure a hosting month, we would recommend contacting your regional Police & Crime Commissioner’s office or your local council to encourage them to sign the agreement at their earliest convenience.

We’d love to hear why your city needs the Knife Angel and the Anti-Violence Bee Monument, and how you would use it to conduct 30 days of educational workshops and programmes for your community youth. If you’d like further information about hosting, please do get in touch.

If you choose to host the Knife Angel, we ask that you create your own leaflet about its potential importance in your community. You can see some examples of leaflets here.
