Description

A sapling from the iconic Sycamore Gap tree, once illegally cut down, now stands in Brockwell Park, Brixton, symbolizing hope for young victims of knife crime. Co-founder of Make It Stop campaign, Romilla Arber, and Lambeth Councils cabinet member for safer communities, Dr. Mahamed Hashi, a victim of violence himself, helped plant the tree. Known for strength and rapid growth, this sycamore replaces a diseased ash tree, serving as a lasting reminder of lost lives and a commitment to reducing violence.
