Knife Crime Warrior: Yvonne Lawson MBE

Yvonne Lawson’s son Godwin was stabbed in the street when he was just seventeen. Following his death Yvonne began searching gangs and knife crime and was shocked by its scale and impact. She set up the Godwin Lawson Foundation in her son’s memory and tells Karla about the incredible impact it’s had - including changing UK government policy to help keep young people safe.
