Aim
Preventing domestic abuse and sexual violence, against women and girls, at festivals and events through education, training and response
Safer Spaces Now is the next step to creating equality and safety for all at festivals and events through education, training and providing vital, immediate and specialist support.
We use specially trained outreach teams educating and engaging festival goers, staff and vendors with ‘zero tolerance’ and ‘don't be a bystander’ messaging, to de-stigmatise talking about and reporting domestic abuse, sexual violence, and all forms of violence against women and girls.
Our front of house tents are set up as a welcoming safe space where people can come and hang out, use facilities and escape to some calmness. The tents also provide a safe space for people to report incidents and get the professional support they need. We are gender informed, but gender inclusive; turning no one away, but being able to provide single gender spaces and support if required.
Donating or raising money for Safer Spaces will enable our team of specialist sexual violence and domestic abuse professionals to reach more people at more events and festivals all across the country. It will also enable us to run more workshops for freelancers, grassroots events and universities, so that we can educate people in how to be active bystanders and support each other, how to be part of healthy relationships and where to go and what to do if they or someone they know need help.
