Advisory Roles/Ann Oakes-Odger...On a bright sunny afternoon of 12th September, 2005 at 3pm the life of my son Westley Odger was taken in an unprovoked mindless act of violence, when he was fatally stabbed in the neck. Since this terrible event I have remained dedicated to raising awareness to the needless 'loss of life' through the use of 'Knives'. The need for change to help 'Victims of Crime'...through first hand experience of what it's like to travel this road and the effects on family life. In order to deal with many issues relating to the Reduction of Violence in Society and help Victims' Families, the KnifeCrimes.Org Online Resource was founded and launched. A regular contributor to Media...Radio, TV News/Documentary Film content and Crime Research Reports.
