16 Days of Activism Against Violence to Women and Girls

25th November – 10th December
This year our focus is to check how many pubs in Durham know about the ‘Ask Angela ‘ scheme and have signed up to the training.
A group of us will visit various pubs to see if they would be willing to sign up to this initiative if not already done so.


We want to help build a society where everyone feels safe, supported and able to look out for one another, whether that is on a night out, at a venue or in other public spaces.
Ask for Angela exists to help make that possible in practical ways. We support individuals, venues and organisations to create safer environments by providing accessible training, clear guidance and practical resources that help people know what to do when support is needed.
By raising awareness of the scheme and helping it work well in practice, we aim to foster a culture of trust, confidence and mutual support, where people feel more able to ask for help and more ready to offer it.
