Tom Skinner was fired by Lord Sugar when he appeared on The Apprentice back in 2019, but that hasn't stopped the two men striking up a solid friendship - with Lord Sugar even now one of Tom's most loyal customers
Mr Skinner promised young people who may want to hand in knives: "If coming to Brentwood is on the expensive side, I will personally pay for your train fare. It s just 25 minutes on the Elizabeth line from central London."
The star of The Apprentice has offered to pay the rail fares of any young people feeling pressured to carry knives to visit his gym in Brentwood, which he says is a safe place for all and includes a knife amnesty bin.
