The mother of a teenager who was fatally stabbed at a house party has made a new documentary to raise awareness about the realities of knife crime.
Hayley Ryall, from Kingswood near Bristol, said her life changed forever in June 2023 when her son, Mikey Roynon, 16, was killed by a single 9.5cm (3.7in) stab wound to the neck from a zombie knife in Bath.
Ryall made the new documentary with presenter Laura Whitmore, saying it has become normal for some young people to carry knives and that the film aims to raise awareness of the issue.
“People think sometimes why does she do it [the documentary] but it’s the only way I can speak to the world, and tell them how I really feel,” Ryall added.
