On the 29th April 2022, FCRG members Todd Hogue and Lauren Smith, along with colleagues from the School of Social and Political Sciences (Tony Ellis, Sue Bond-Taylor and Carina O’Reilly), hosted a workshop to support to development of a new initiative to tackle knife-enabled crime in Lincolnshire, Think Sharp – which is being led by Lincolnshire Police.
The event was held at The Cathedral Centre and was the first of 2 workshops, attended by stakeholders with lived experience, and representatives from health, criminal justice and the local authorities, funded by the University of Lincoln’s allocation of the QR Policy Support Fund.
