Roseann Taylor has been the inspiration behind the new ‘Just Drop It ‘campaign. Her son Azaan was tragically stabbed to death in Luton in 2018. He was just 18 years old.
He was a fantastic young man known by his loved ones as ‘AJ’. He was never in trouble, never part of a gang. AJ loved fast cars, motorbikes, skateboarding and travelling. Still finding he’s feet, AJ knew academic or office work wasn’t for him. Whatever he would eventually do, it would have to allow him to get stuck in and get his hands dirty. However, his life was tragically cut short when he was stabbed in an unprovoked attack by four strangers while he was out walking with his girlfriend.
Roseann now works for the Violence and Exploitation Reduction Unit. She doesn’t want any family or young person to suffer like she has. We share AJ’s story so people will Think Twice. Think Life. And Just Drop It.
Watch the trailer for AJ’s Story here; Just Drop It - Think Twice, Think Life. You can also sign up for the webinar and download campaign resources.
