Knife bins and bleed control kits
Knife bins
The James Brindley foundation has donated secure knife disposal bins to Walsall Borough, as part of their Safer Streets campaign. Knives and bladed weapons can be safely and anonymously disposed of in the bins. The knife bins are emptied by specialist teams (not the Police) and either ground down to mulch or chopped and recycled.
The are also West Midlands Police weapon surrender bins in Walsall Borough which can be used to securely dispose of a knife, blade or other weapon. Items deposited in the bin are secure until they are removed by professionals.
Bleed control kits
The kits contain products which can help control bleeding until paramedics or emergency services arrive. Bleed control kits are available in several locations around the borough.
