Knife crime against women and girls has more than doubled in five years and campaigners are warning that not enough is being done to keep them safe.

New figures obtained by The Independent show the number of women who were killed, injured or threatened by a knife soared from 6,000 in 2018 to more than 13,700 in 2022 – laying bare the scale of the crisis. The offences include ones relating to robbery, rape, homicide, public order and theft.

Elianne Andam, 15, is among the victims of knife crime, having been killed on her way to school in Croydon last September. Mehak Sharma, 19, was stabbed to death in the same borough last November having just moved to the UK from India.

Campaigners say the statistics, which cover the last available full year of 2022, show the country needs to tackle the crisis, particularly when it relates to domestic violence, with Labour MP Jess Phillips warning: “Things are getting progressively worse.”

Nick Gazzard, whose 20-year-old daughter Hollie died after being stabbed 14 times by her violent ex-boyfriend in 2014, said: “If this was terrorism, there would be a national outcry.”

The figures for 2022 reveal that:

The number of female knife crime victims surged by 43 per cent in the West Midlands, from 1,010 in 2018 to 1,448 in 2022, according to the UK’s second-largest force

In Essex, the number of victims more than quadrupled in the same time frame – from 435 to 1,879

And Avon and Somerset recorded the number of victims as rising 46 per cent over five years, from 593 to 868

After a Freedom of Information request made by this publication, 26 of the UK’s 43 police forces provided data on knife crime where the victim was either a girl or a woman. The Metropolitan Police, Britain’s largest force, did not respond.

The latest full-year countrywide figures from the Office for National Statistics (ONS), also for 2022, show that 282 homicides – or four out of 10 – were committed using a knife or sharp instrument. This represented a 19 per cent increase over the previous year.

Police said the way knife crimes are recorded had changed in 2019 but they could not attribute the rise in figures to those changes.

Knives and sharp instruments are the most common weapons used to kill women in this country. ONS data shows that, in the year ending March 2022, one in three female homicide victims was killed by a partner or ex (33 per cent), while more than one in 10 died at the hands of a relative (13 per cent). Some 40 per cent of the deaths occurred in or around the home, compared to 7 per cent in the street or other public spaces.

Ms Phillips has long championed the fight against domestic violence but says the government’s Domestic Abuse Bill does not do enough to protect women. The MP for Birmingham Yardley blames a reduction in youth services and workers, local council cuts, and a lack of police and judicial resources for fuelling the crisis.

The MP, who every year in parliament reads out the names of women killed by men, said: “Things are getting progressively worse, knife crime against women is classic domestic abuse but that’s not ever included in knife crime strategy.

“If only they [the government] cared as much about sexual and domestic abuse as they care about Rwanda.”

The law currently states killers who bring a weapon to the scene face a minimum 25-year sentence, while sentences for those who do not start at 15 years. As domestic killers are more likely to use a weapon lying around the house, like a kitchen knife, they can end up with more lenient jail terms.

Carole Gould has campaigned to close the legal loophole ever since her 17-year-old daughter Ellie was killed by her boyfriend of three months when she ended the relationship.

Thomas Griffiths was sentenced to life imprisonment with a minimum term of 12-and-a-half years in 2019 after he walked into Ellie’s family home, strangled her and then stabbed her 13 times, attempting to frame the attack as a suicide by inserting the knife in the side of her neck.

“She’d only been going out with him for a few months,” her mother said. “The ending of a relationship is the most dangerous time in a woman’s life.”

Campaigner Ngozi Fulani told The Independent that the cost of living crisis may also have had an impact on the rise in crimes against women.

Ms Fulani set up the charity Sistah Space to advocate for Black female victims of domestic abuse in the wake of the deaths of Valerie Forde and her 22-month-old daughter Jahzara. They were both stabbed to death in 2014 by Ms Forde’s ex Roland McKoy, who was jailed for 35 years.

“We have seen a significant rise in reporting to us of knife or sharp instrument attacks,” Ms Fulani said. “We are in a time of economic depression right now and we find perpetrators in unstable economic situations will often become violent.”

Sistah Space has campaigned for Valerie’s Law, legislation that would make specialist training mandatory for all police and other government agencies that support black women and girls affected by domestic abuse.

“We want people to understand one thing – domestic abuse is not a woman’s problem,” she said. “It’s an everybody problem.”

For Deniz Ugur, deputy director of the End Violence Against Women Coalition, violence by men against women is part of a cultural problem that needs to be tackled.

“Women and girls face the constant threat of male violence, whether that’s in public spaces, the workplace, online or in our own homes, where the majority of this violence takes place,” he said.

“If we are to change this then it is critical that the government prioritises and invests in quality relationships and sex education based on consent and equality, and public campaigns to shift the attitudes that justify and normalise this violence and abuse. Women and girls deserve better.”

Conservative MP Caroline Nokes has criticised the government for refusing to commit to a new educational strategy for boys which would aim to tackle sexual harassment and gender-based violence.

The chair of the cross-party women’s and equalities committee said: “Education is a powerful and necessary tool in preventing violence against women and girls. Relationships, sex and health education that continues past secondary school and that engages proactively with boys and young men is crucial to combat harmful attitudes.”

A Home Office spokesperson said: “The government is committed to raising the bar in how these vile crimes are dealt with.

“We have gone further than ever before in protecting domestic abuse victims, classifying it as a national threat. Our innovative Young Women and Girls Fund also delivers specialist interventions to vulnerable young women and girls at risk of exploitation or violence.

“We will continue to work closely with the police and courts to bring more criminals to justice, and have set clear expectations for how the police should respond.”

Cosmetics Market Dynamics: Drivers, Restraints, Opportunities, and Challenges

The global cosmetic serum market is estimated to be valued at US$ 5.43 Bn in 2024 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 5.0% over the forecast period of 2023 to 2030. Cosmetic serum refers to skincare formulations that deeply penetrate the skin to deliver active ingredients and nourishment. They contain higher concentrations of vitamins, antioxidants and other active ingredients compared to lighter moisturizers. The lightweight texture and targeted formulation of serums make them highly effective for anti-aging, hydration and acne-prone skin. Rising preference for natural and organic ingredients is propelling the demand for natural serum offerings. Furthermore, growing focus on preventive skincare regimens among consumers to delay signs of aging is fueling the sales of anti-aging serums. Key Takeaways Key players operating in the cosmetic serum market are L'Oréal S.A., Estée Lauder Companies Inc., Shiseido Company, Limited, Procter & Gamble Co., Johnson & Johnson Services, Inc., Beiersdorf AG, Unilever PLC, The Body Shop International Limited, Kao Corporation, Colgate-Palmolive Company, Amway Corporation, Avon Products, Inc., Mary Kay Inc., Clarins Group, Coty Inc. These players are focusing on new product launches and geographical expansions to gain a competitive edge. The rising working woman population and increasing disposable incomes in developing nations are positively impacting the sales of high-end cosmetic serums. Furthermore, growing awareness about skincare regimens through digital and social media marketing is propelling the demand from millennials and Gen Z. Technological advancements are enabling cosmetic companies to develop novel delivery systems, ingredients and formulations for optimizing the efficacy of serums. Key players are investing in research & development of plant-based, organic serums infused with stem cells, peptides and other advanced active ingredients. Market Trends - Hybrid products: Companies are focusing on launches of hybrid products ranging from moisturizing serums and dream creams to anti-pollution serums featuring two-in-one benefits of serum and cream textures. - Natural & clean ingredients: Growing popularity of natural extracts and organic certification is prompting cosmetic brands to adopt clean label approaches and remove synthetic ingredients from serum formulations. Market Opportunities - Male grooming: Rising male-focused marketing campaigns are increasing awareness about broader skincare regimens including use of light hydrating serums amongst young men. - Customization: Personalization platforms enabling customers to customize formulas, concentrations and formats of active ingredients based on skin concerns offer significant opportunities. Impact of COVID-19 on Cosmetic Serum Market Growth

The outbreak of COVID-19 pandemic has significantly impacted the growth of global cosmetic serum market. During the initial phase of pandemic, the sale of cosmetic serum declined drastically as imposition of nationwide lockdowns and social distancing norms forced people to stay indoors. The closure of physical stores and disruption in supply chain hampered the market growth. However, with increasing preference for skincare and personal care products during lockdowns, the demand for cosmetic serum via online channels increased significantly. But, the supply chain challenges restricted manufacturers to fulfill this rising demand. In the post-pandemic period, the market is expected to witness strong recovery backed by renewed consumers focus on personal wellness and skincare. Manufacturers are focusing on innovation in formulations, strengthening their online presence and expansion of e-commerce fulfillment capabilities to capture this rising demand. They are also coming up with serum products targeting specific skincare concerns like anti-aging, brightness, hydration etc. witnessed during pandemic period. Increased work from home culture is also fueling the demand for premium serum products for self-care. However, threat of recurring pandemic waves, rising inflation and economic uncertainties may restrain the market growth to some extent. Europe accounts for largest share in global cosmetic serum market in terms of value. Countries including Germany, France, UK and Italy are major revenue contributors to European serum market. North America holds second largest market share, driven by rising health and wellness trend among millennials. Asia Pacific is the fastest growing region for cosmetic serum market backed by growing middle class population, increasing disposable incomes and rising focus on personal appearance in countries like India, China, South Korea and Vietnam. Latin America and Middle East & Africa are also emerging as high potential markets for premium serums.

33 Top Teddy Bear Facts You Probably Never Knew!

The charming and cuddly teddy bear is in excess of 100 years of age. Truth be told, it originates before even World War I and can follow its beginnings back to one of the best US presidents.

5 INSPIRING COVID 19 MARKETING CAMPAIGNS

As the Covid-19 pandemic continues, one thing is certain: Nothing will ever be same again. Thrusting into a state of isolation every now and then and not knowing what’s going to happen in the future, people of this era have a lot on their plate with Covid-19 taking the hot spot. It has affected the way people used to live and most importantly, the way they used to spend. Since the start of this pandemic, consumer circumstances and buying habits have changed significantly and thus, brands have been pushed to change their approach as well. Many experts have stated that it’s time for brands to reassess their marketing strategies and make use of the one thing that can give them the results they desperately require – digital marketing. With digitalization taking over the industries as well as markets by storm, we cannot ignore the impact a well-crafted and well executed digital marketing strategy has in achieving the targets on your list. In fact, many marketers have managed to still find success during the pandemic with the use of right digital tools. They are still connecting with their customers, promoting their brand, and boosting their sales. So, what exactly do these marketers know? To answer this, we have listed for you five noteworthy marketing campaigns that can perhaps fuel up your marketing efforts.

“Couch potatriot” by Burger king

At the start of the Covid pandemic, many were uncertain about how they are supposed to live in the confines of their home. Precisely, fast-food lovers felt this pain and burger king handled it well. In its “couch potatriot” advertising, BK highlighted three pressing issues and solved them. First, it urged people in a very subtle manner to have burger king deliver to their home and solved the hunger issue. Second, it solved the issue of cost by offering free delivery via their app. Third, it encouraged people to stay at home by branding this act of consumers as patriotic, suggesting staying at the couch these days is an act of patriotism. While many restaurants were also offering free delivery, Burger king’s approach stands out as it basically made the consumer the hero of the whole situation while pressing the importance of staying indoor and following the social distancing guidelines. So, you also need to first understand your customer situation right now and craft a campaign that puts them in the light.

Gillette’s “Barber Suraksha” Programme

The lockdown has resulted in the loss of many people’s livelihoods including barbers. The Gillette team decided to provide support to the barber community under its Barbar Suraksha programme with sanitation kits, videos practices for safety, Covid insurance and most importantly, hope for the months to come, which Gillette reflected in its marketing campaign. This campaign garnered around 45 million views and over 20 million engagement. It also helped turn the barber community from competitors to business partners. It also gave it’s brand an opportunity to increase the sale of its products. With this campaign, Gillette made its brand stand out and represented a thoughtful image of the brand that touched the cords of the audience’s heart. Nowadays, people want themselves to be associated with a brand that has a purpose which is much more than just earning profit and that is what Gillette India targeted.

“Isolated Not Alone” by Avon

While the pandemic turned everyone lives upside down, AVON realized that they were some section of people that were more vulnerable now. With schools and businesses closed, many children and women at risk of domestic violence were trapped with their offenders. Since AVON has long been a voice for domestic violence, it partnered with a domestic violence awareness organization and hosted live video sessions with global thought leaders and also its customers on this topic. Plus, it issued open letters to government organizations asking for a focus on domestic violence preventions. So, right now, brands need to harness their strong values in order to connect with their customers meaningfully. It is time for brands to show customers that they are human and they understand their plight and lend them a helping hand.

Nike

Nike’s brand message has always been clearly reflected in its marketing campaigns. It wants people to believe that they have the potential to achieve anything and they only need to realize it. Amidst the pandemic, Nike helped its customers maintain their fitness and personal morale by making its club training subscription free for a limited amount of time and offering fans exclusive access to training, health and fitness content.

BECAUSE THE CORONAVIRUS IS JUST HURTING FEMINIST AND ONLY FEMINISTS AND ABSOLUTELY NO ONE ELSE...

..........

Enough already. When people try to be cheerful about social distancing and working from home, noting that William Shakespeare and Isaac Newton did some of their best work while England was ravaged by the plague, there is an obvious response: Neither of them had child-care responsibilities.

Shakespeare spent most of his career in London, where the theaters were, while his family lived in Stratford-upon-Avon. During the plague of 1606, the playwright was lucky to be spared from the epidemic—his landlady died at the height of the outbreak—and his wife and two adult daughters stayed safely in the Warwickshire countryside. Newton, meanwhile, never married or had children. He saw out the Great Plague of 1665–6 on his family’s estate in the east of England, and spent most of his adult life as a fellow at Cambridge University, where his meals and housekeeping were provided by the college.

For those with caring responsibilities, an infectious-disease outbreak is unlikely to give them time to write King Lear or develop a theory of optics. A pandemic magnifies all existing inequalities (even as politicians insist this is not the time to talk about anything other than the immediate crisis). Working from home in a white-collar job is easier; employees with salaries and benefits will be better protected; self-isolation is less taxing in a spacious house than a cramped apartment. But one of the most striking effects of the coronavirus will be to send many couples back to the 1950s.

Across the world, women’s independence will be a silent victim of the pandemic.

Purely as a physical illness, the coronavirus appears to affect women less severely. But in the past few days, the conversation about the pandemic has broadened: We are not just living through a public-health crisis, but an economic one. As much of normal life is suspended for three months or more, job losses are inevitable. At the same time, school closures and household isolation are moving the work of caring for children from the paid economy—nurseries, schools, babysitters—to the unpaid one. The coronavirus smashes up the bargain that so many dual-earner couples have made in the developed world: We can both work, because someone else is looking after our children. Instead, couples will have to decide which one of them takes the hit.

Many stories of arrogance are related to this pandemic. Among the most exasperating is the West’s failure to learn from history: the Ebola crisis in three African countries in 2014; Zika in 2015–6; and recent outbreaks of SARS, swine flu, and bird flu. Academics who studied these episodes found that they had deep, long-lasting effects on gender equality. “Everybody’s income was affected by the Ebola outbreak in West Africa,” Julia Smith, a health-policy researcher at Simon Fraser University, told The New York Times this month, but “men’s income returned to what they had made pre-outbreak faster than women’s income.” The distorting effects of an epidemic can last for years, Clare Wenham, an assistant professor of global-health policy at the London School of Economics, told me. “We also saw declining rates of childhood vaccination [during Ebola].” Later, when these children contracted preventable diseases, their mothers had to take time off work.

At an individual level, the choices of many couples over the next few months will make perfect economic sense. What do pandemic patients need? Looking after. What do self-isolating older people need? Looking after. What do children kept home from school need? Looking after. All this looking after—this unpaid caring labor—will fall more heavily on women, because of the existing structure of the workforce. “It’s not just about social norms of women performing care roles; it’s also about practicalities,” Wenham added. “Who is paid less? Who has the flexibility?”

According to the British government’s figures, 40 percent of employed women work part-time, compared with only 13 percent of men. In heterosexual relationships, women are more likely to be the lower earners, meaning their jobs are considered a lower priority when disruptions come along. And this particular disruption could last months, rather than weeks. Some women’s lifetime earnings will never recover. With the schools closed, many fathers will undoubtedly step up, but that won’t be universal.

Despite the mass entry of women into the workforce during the 20th century, the phenomenon of the “second shift” still exists. Across the world, women—including those with jobs—do more housework and have less leisure time than their male partners. Even memes about panic-buying acknowledge that household tasks such as food shopping are primarily shouldered by women. “I’m not afraid of COVID-19 but what is scary, is the lack of common sense people have,” reads one of the most popular tweets about the coronavirus crisis. “I’m scared for people who actually need to go to the store & feed their fams but Susan and Karen stocked up for 30 years.” The joke only works because “Susan” and “Karen”—stand-in names for suburban moms—are understood to be responsible for household management, rather than, say, Mike and Steve.

Look around and you can see couples already making tough decisions on how to divide up this extra unpaid labor. When I called Wenham, she was self-isolating with two small children; she and her husband were alternating between two-hour shifts of child care and paid work. That is one solution; for others, the division will run along older lines. Dual-income couples might suddenly find themselves living like their grandparents, one homemaker and one breadwinner. “My spouse is a physician in the emergency dept, and is actively treating #coronavirus patients. We just made the difficult decision for him to isolate & move into our garage apartment for the foreseeable future as he continues to treat patients,” wrote the Emory University epidemiologist Rachel Patzer, who has a three-week-old baby and two young children. “As I attempt to home school my kids (alone) with a new baby who screams if she isn’t held, I am worried about the health of my spouse and my family.”

Single parents face even harder decisions: While schools are closed, how do they juggle earning and caring? No one should be nostalgic for the “1950s ideal” of Dad returning to a freshly baked dinner and freshly washed children, when so many families were excluded from it, even then. And in Britain today, a quarter of families are headed by a single parent, more than 90 percent of whom are women. Closed schools make their life even harder.

Other lessons from the Ebola epidemic were just as stark—and similar, if perhaps smaller, effects will be seen during this crisis in the developed world. School closures affected girls’ life chances, because many dropped out of education. (A rise in teenage-pregnancy rates exacerbated this trend.) Domestic and sexual violence rose. And more women died in childbirth because resources were diverted elsewhere. “There’s a distortion of health systems, everything goes towards the outbreak,” said Wenham, who traveled to west Africa as a researcher during the Ebola crisis. “Things that aren’t priorities get canceled. That can have an effect on maternal mortality, or access to contraception.” The United States already has appalling statistics in this area compared with other rich countries, and black women there are twice as likely to die in childbirth as white women.

For Wenham, the most striking statistic from Sierra Leone, one of the countries worst affected by Ebola, was that from 2013 to 2016, during the outbreak, more women died of obstetric complications than the infectious disease itself. But these deaths, like the unnoticed caring labor on which the modern economy runs, attract less attention than the immediate problems generated by an epidemic. These deaths are taken for granted. In her book Invisible Women, Caroline Criado Perez notes that 29 million papers were published in more than 15,000 peer-reviewed titles around the time of the Zika and Ebola epidemics, but less than 1 percent explored the gendered impact of the outbreaks. Wenham has found no gender analysis of the coronavirus outbreak so far; she and two co-authors have stepped into the gap to research the issue.

The evidence we do have from the Ebola and Zika outbreaks should inform the current response. In both rich and poor countries, campaigners expect domestic-violence rates to rise during lockdown periods. Stress, alcohol consumption, and financial difficulties are all considered triggers for violence in the home, and the quarantine measures being imposed around the world will increase all three. The British charity Women’s Aid said in a statement that it was “concerned that social distancing and self-isolation will be used as a tool of coercive and controlling behaviour by perpetrators, and will shut down routes to safety and support.”

Researchers, including those I spoke with, are frustrated that findings like this have not made it through to policy makers, who still adopt a gender-neutral approach to pandemics. They also worry that opportunities to collect high-quality data which will be useful for the future are being missed. For example, we have little information on how viruses similar to the coronavirus affect pregnant women—hence the conflicting advice during the current crisis—or, according to Susannah Hares, a senior policy fellow at the Center for Global Development, sufficient data to build a model for when schools should reopen.

We shouldn’t make that mistake again. Grim as it is to imagine now, further epidemics are inevitable, and the temptation to argue that gender is a side issue, a distraction from the real crisis, must be resisted. What we do now will affect the lives of millions of women and girls in future outbreaks.

The coronavirus crisis will be global and long-lasting, economic as well as medical. However, it also offers an opportunity. This could be the first outbreak where gender and sex differences are recorded, and taken into account by researchers and policy makers. For too long, politicians have assumed that child care and elderly care can be “soaked up” by private citizens—mostly women—effectively providing a huge subsidy to the paid economy. This pandemic should remind us of the true scale of that distortion.

Wenham supports emergency child-care provision, economic security for small-business owners, and a financial stimulus paid directly to families. But she isn’t hopeful, because her experience suggests that governments are too short-termist and reactive. “Everything that's happened has been predicted, right?” she told me. “As a collective academic group, we knew there would be an outbreak that came out of China, that shows you how globalization spreads disease, that’s going to paralyze financial systems, and there was no pot of money ready to go, no governance plan … We knew all this, and they didn't listen. So why would they listen to something about women?”

Remember this article the next time a politician brings up the draft again...

because I remember the last reaction.
