Crime Prevention Advice - Ask for Angela

Good Afternoon Resident, 

Feeling uncomfortable, unsafe, threatened or vulnerable on a night out?

Many pubs, bars, clubs, restaurants and entertainment venues support the Ask for Angela scheme, which provides a discreet way to seek help from trained staff. 

🗣️ How Does It Work?

If you find yourself in a situation that doesn't feel right:

👤 Approach a member of staff

💬 Ask for "Angela"

This lets staff know that you need assistance without having to explain the situation in front of others. 

🤝 How Can Staff Help?

Depending on the situation, staff may:

✅ Take you to a safe area

✅ Help you leave the venue safely

✅ Contact a friend or family member

✅ Arrange safe transport home

✅ Alert venue security

✅ Contact the police if necessary

👀 Who Is It For?

Ask for Angela is available for anyone who feels uncomfortable, vulnerable, harassed or unsafe, whether on a date, with friends, or when dealing with unwanted attention from others. 

💙 Remember

If you're on a night out and something doesn't feel right, trust your instincts.

You don't have to deal with an uncomfortable situation alone. Help is available. Just Ask for Angela. 💜
