Operation Sceptre

👮🔪OPERATION SCEPTRE - UPDATE🔪👮

Here’s an image showing some of the bladed articles and items considered offensive weapons that were handed in voluntarily. No action was taken against those who contacted us to dispose of these items.

We at Shirebrook Safer Neighbourhood Team encourage members of the public to hand in any old knives or bladed articles. You can do this in two ways:

🔪 Visit our amnesty bin at Shirebrook Leisure Centre on 22nd November 2025 at 15:00.
🔪  Call 101 and request an officer from Shirebrook Safer Neighbourhood Team to collect and safely dispose of your items.

Together, we can make our streets safer. Thank you for helping us keep our community secure.
