Issue details

Bristol City Council has attracted significant funding through the Home Office Grant. This additional investment in the City, will enable delivery of a number of initiatives that aim to reduce incidents of violence against women and girls to include sexual harassment and drink spiking incidents. The project includes the development of legacy products to include a Bristol Women’s Safety Charter, anti-sexual harassment training package for night-time economy employees and a City-Wide Awareness campaign. The funds will also expand on the current police led drink spiking testing pilot across the City and support the Bristol@Night website. Implementation of these initiatives will serve to reduce crimes against women and girls at night, reduce the fear of these crimes and grow the power of the night-time community from within.
