ABOUT STEEL WARRIORS:
USING STEEL TO BUILD LIVES, NOT DESTROY THEM
Steel Warriors is an anti knife crime charity that melt down knives taken off the streets and recycles the steel into outdoor street gyms. We use street workout to transform the lives of young people affected by crime, violence and social exclusion, giving them the skills and confidence they need to create positive futures.
Our vision is to build a UK-wide network of gyms, a street workout movement, that not only empowers young people to realise their passions and pursue their goals, but also fosters stronger, closer and more loving communities.

““Steel Warriors is a great charity and trying to turn a negative into a positive. Knife crime is a real issue in London so we’re going to attack it.””
“Cue The Steel Warriors effect. A three-fold impact, it firstly takes knives off the streets.
Secondly, it dissuades impressionable members of the community from being absorbed
into gang culture and, thirdly, transforms the area from a potential hotbed for crime into
something considerably more community-focused.”
“The Steel Warriors gym raises awareness of knife crime whilst providing a safe, positive community space and an outlet for young people, helping to take knives off the streets and drive home the message that carrying one is more likely to ruin your life than save it.
