Doreen Lawrence has said Tory cuts to youth services have led to the rise in violence among young people.
The mum of Stephen Lawrence criticised the slashing of funding as she warned children are ending up on the streets and in gangs.
Speaking at an event with Keir Starmer to mark the 30th anniversary of her son’s murder next Saturday, Baroness Lawrence said she wants to see “more young people survive” as she declared “change really needs to happen”.
