Talk | Listen | Unite | Prevent
We are the Godwin Lawson Foundation, a registered charity dedicated to educating and preventing knife crime.
01. Our Mission Transforming Lives
We are on a mission to eradicate gun and knife crime by unlocking the potential within our youth. Through inspiring programs and opportunities, we guide young people away from gangs, helping them realise their dreams and build a brighter, safer future.
02. Advocacy & Action Driving Change
At GLF, we don't just talk about change we drive it. We lobby relentlessly for stronger knife crime laws and share compelling stories of loss and hope. Yvonne Lawson's voice echoes the pain and resilience of countless families, spotlighting the urgent need for reform.
03. In Memory of Godwin Lawson
The Godwin Lawson Foundation (GLF) was born from tragedy in 2012, when Yvonne and Calvin Lawson transformed their grief into a powerful force for good. Their son, Godwin, heroically tried to protect friends from a knife attack and lost his life. GLF stands as a testament to his bravery, committed to preventing such tragedies.
