Our Mission

Through bodybuilding, sport, and community engagement, we aim to reduce knife crime and anti-social behaviour by providing positive outlets for young people across Yorkshire.

Led by Olympia Wellbeing Academy CIC, the Olympia Anti-Knife Crime Weekend is more than just an event—it’s part of a growing movement to reshape futures, honouring those we’ve lost and inspiring those still with us.

Team Olympia’s work is deeply connected to Harvey’s legacy. His memory continues to inspire their commitment to positive youth engagement, safety, and community through sport.

We’re working with Mums United Sheffield to support families affected by youth violence. If you have a story connected to knife or gun crime, we’re here to listen and help raise awareness.

For Harvey,

For Hope.

This weekend is dedicated to Harvey Willgoose and every other Child, whose lives have tragically been taken due to gun and knife crime in the UK.

Harvey’s story fuels our mission and strengthens our resolve.

His mother, Carolline, now leads a powerful campaign to bring knife arches to every school in the UK. Join us in honouring his memory and backing a future free from violence.
