'One knife in the bin is potentially two lives that could be saved.'
Lutel James, CEO of Chapeltown Youth Development Centre, said he hoped the bins would encourage more than 1,000 young people who use the venue each week to get rid of any weapons.
Mr James described how a parent had called the centre and asked staff to come to the house to confiscate a knife. Det Ch Insp James Entwistle from West Yorkshire Police said data showed knife crime had fallen compared to the previous 12 months.
