A recent survey has shown 69% of nightlife enthusiasts feel “unsafe” or “cautious” when they are out.
26 (15 Male, 11 Female) respondents were asked if they felt: Very safe, safe, cautious, unsafe or very unsafe.
Further research revealed a majority of participants had experienced gender based violence in nightlife.
Have you been verbally assaulted?
Do you believe you have you been spiked?
Have you been touched without your consent?
One way to make people feel safer on nights out could be through volunteer groups like the Night Stars, who aim to make London’s night life safer for everyone.
