The safety of people in the night time economy is everyone’s responsibility. Together, we must change our culture to call out behaviours which are disrespectful and cause harm.

• Start the conversation about the role of safety for everyone in your space. Empower people to speak up and share their experiences if they are willing to and talk about the role that everyone has in changing culture within your organisation and outside.
  
  
• Most violent incidents happen by men harming women. The majority of violence that men suffer is at the hands of other men.
  
  
• Acknowledge and understand how sexism, male dominance and privilege lay the foundation for all forms of violence against women. Remember that when you choose not to speak out against men’s violence and inappropriate behaviours, you are not supporting it.
  
  
• Conscious raising – encourage men to learn more by providing time and access to awareness raising events and resources. Bystander intervention training is widely available.
  
  
• Pay attention. Learn the signs of abuse, how to act and what to say if you are concerned. Provide support to men to speak up if they suspect abuse or assault is taking place. Equally, if men identify that they need help with their own behaviours, sign post them to help (see below).
  
  
• Mentoring – identify individuals to be a mentor. Encourage them to take ownership of issues and drive change, both at work and privately, through their family and friends.
  
  
• Be a role model, this can be as simple as not talking over women. Educate boys and young men. Challenge traditional, harmful male stereotypes of manhood that degrade or mock women and girls.

Appoint a ‘Champion’ for night safety within your organisation. Make all team members aware of who your Champion is so that they can go to them for advice and resources. Ensure there is succession planning so that if the ‘Champion’ leaves your organisation a new one is appointed. Communicate with your local Neighbourhood Policing Team to network and share best practice.

• Be passionate about helping people understand that keeping people safe is a shared responsibility.
• Ensure that time and resources are given to undertake meaningful activities and advocate for practical and cultural changes.
• Continue to spread the word about the commitments you have been able to meet.
• Empower colleagues to challenge unsafe language, behaviours and practice and support the training agenda.
• Engage with local Neighbourhood Policing Teams to network and share best practice.
• Communicate your zero-tolerance policy on unacceptable behaviours and be clear on how to report incidents and how people will be supported.
• Provide signposting to local services.
• Develop clear policies and procedures within your organisation on how to report and respond to incidents and reports.

Your organisation will need to decide which member of staff best fits the role of the Champion. Organisations should choose a member of staff with the passion, time, energy and ability to inspire others to have honest conversations.

The Champion will be the point of contact for any work done in-line with the Charter, ensuring that the commitments you prioritise are met by your organisation. They will oversee the promotion of a culture of belief at your organisation and share best practice with other organisations.

• Policy – develop policies for your organisation on how to report and respond to incidents.
  
  
• Believe - ensure your staff believe and support anyone who comes forward to report something that makes them feel uncomfortable.
  
  
• Training - provide specialised training for your staff on sexual harassment and assaults, with a focus on how to respond and intervene if incidents take place.
  
  
• Confidence - ensure that every team member is confident and has been trained in how to take reports of sexual harassment and assaults.
  
  
• Initiatives – actively use initiatives such as Ask for Angela and other tools provided by Licensing SAVI. Ensure staff are trained on how to implement and respond to these initiatives.
  
  
• Active - be an active bystander and respond effectively to harmful behaviour. Focus attention and support on the person being targeted.
  
  
• Listen – actively listen to the person being targeted.
  
  
• Reports – Ensure all reports and incidents are recorded. Be aware of data and confidentiality guidelines.
  
  
• Evidence – remember your CCTV. Keep a record of all incidents and reports. This helps others to keep up to date with issues and repeated behaviours. Keep your notes clear and stick to facts.
  
  
• Police - call 101 or 999 in an emergency. Establish relationships with your local Neighbourhood Policing Team and report any intelligence and incidents.
  
  
• Consider developing a joined-up approach with other similar organisations i.e. shared policies and procedural implementation with other Pub Watch members.
  
  
• Engage with your local BID.
  
  
• Be consistent.

• Conduct a review of your spaces and ensure that they are designed to promote a safer environment and reduce crime. Make adaptations were necessary.
  
  
• Check that all CCTV and lighting is functioning correctly. Ensure that CCTV is in the right places and that exits and pathways are sufficiently lit.
  
  
• Assess your provision of accessible and genderneutral bathrooms.
  
  
• Complete an access audit of your buildings and spaces to.
  
  
• Design and ‘safe space’ where the public and staff can be taken following an incident. Provide somewhere safe for the reporting person to recover and where staff can interact and provide support to enable them to report and respond effectively.
  
  
• Ensure staff and security are positioned equally throughout your spaces.
  
  
• Engage with local Neighbourhood Policing Teams and build key relationships.

Create an environment where both your staff and the public feel comfortable and confident to report incidents.

• Create routes for reporting unacceptable behaviour while at work and support cultural change.
  
  
• Create routs for reporting unacceptable behaviour for the public.
  
  
• Familiarise your organisation about local services and signposting.
  
  
• Complete an anonymous staff survey to get a full view of how safety is experienced across the organisation, not just at work but also how they feel when they are in the night time economy themselves. Use this to help inform your approach to safety.
  
  
• Prioritise creating policies and procedures to address safety and involve staff. Ensure there are clear policies on how staff will respond to incidents and reports from other staff members and the public.
  
  
• Make sure that anyone who experiences sexual harassment, assault or incident in your space is able to report it in a simple, straightforward way
  
  
• Invest in staff training to understand harmful behaviours.
  
  
• Develop trust and public confidence in your organisation.
  
  
• Provide signposting to local services.
  
  
• Be an active member of Pub Watch if appropriate to your organisation.
  
  
• Support other organisations and work together to keep everyone safe.
  
  
• Engage with your local BID.
