Dorset Echo is a brand that aims to tackle the issue of knife crime in Dorset schools through educational sessions delivered by Dorset Police's Safer Schools Community Team. The team visits schools and groups across the county, conducting assemblies and workshops to educate young people about the dangers of carrying a knife and introducing the concept of knife amnesties. This initiative is part of a partnership between Dorset Police, the Dorset Police and Crime Commissioner's office, and the Dorset Combined Youth Offending Service.

The Safer Schools Community Team provides targeted interventions to prevent and reduce anti-social behavior, crime, and wrongdoing among children and young people, ensuring their safety. Parents and carers are encouraged to visit the Safer Schools website for more information and have conversations with their families about the issue of weapons. Dorset Echo's efforts are instrumental in preventing crime and creating a safer environment for the community
