Coronation Street has been working with The Ben Kinsella Trust to ensure the storyline will be told as accurately and sensitively as possible.
"It's vitally important to shine a light on this topic, and really show the impact knife crime has on not only the victim and their loved ones, but also the wider community," said the soap's producer Kate Brooks.
"With the alarming statistics, we want to do anything we can as a show to combat this violent endemic. After watching this harrowing but important story unfold, if one person thinks twice about bringing a knife to a fight, then we've achieved our aim to raise awareness."
Coronation Street airs on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays at 8pm on ITV1 and streams on ITVX.
