Always an Alternative CIO is a charity created created with the ultimate aim of spreading awareness and reducing knife crime, gun crime, gangs culture, anti-social behaviour and positive choices; what we call, current risks to youths. We achieve this by using alternative ways of education to engage the youthful minds of today; inform, mentor and support them with the challenges that they may come up against. For more information on our amazing work please visit:
