Knife surrender bins unveiled by Christina Edkins' mother
The family of the late Police and Crime Commissioner Bob Jones and stab victim Christina Edkins have unveiled knife surrender bins.
Mr Jones had spearheaded the knife amnesty before his sudden death last week, while Miss Edkins mother Kathleen Harris said she hoped those carrying knives would learn the error of their ways following her daughter's tragic death.
Mr Jones' widow Sarah Edmondson and his stepdaughter Frances Harrison pulled the wraps off the the bin which is located at Tabernacle Church, Dunstall Road, Whitmore Reans.
And the former police chief's loved ones paid tribute to him describing him as 'a man for the community'.
Mr Jones had been a champion of fighting the war on knife crime and had supported surrender bins at various locations across the West Midlands.
A ceremony was held at the church where anti-knife campaigners were among those to address around 50 people gathered.
