A charity set up to remember a man murdered in a stabbing outside a Bodmin nightclub is supporting a plan to install bleed control kits in every Cornish school.

Michael's Initiative for Knifecrime Education in Society (Mikes Trust) said the work being carried out by another charity, Front Line Emergency Equipment Trust (Fleet), as well as Duchy Defibrillators and Bleed Control Cornwall was "impressive".

The charity was set up after Michael Riddiough-Allen, 32, was killed by Jake Hill, 25, outside Eclipse Nightclub in 2023.

There are now bleed kits containing bandages, tourniquets and gloves in 270 defibrillator cabinets around the county. Next, is to distribute kits to all schools and colleges.

Hill also injured four others with a serrated hunting knife he had hidden in a nearby hedge after the venue closed.

Mr Riddiough-Allen intervened in a bid to prevent Hill from injuring others but suffered a fatal wound to his abdomen and died at the scene.

Hill was jailed for life with a minimum term of 28 years.

Mr Riddiough-Allen's family has set up Mikes Trust to educate young people about knife crime.
