About the event

Safety in the Night-time economy: the Newcastle experience

Newcastle is often voted the best place for a night out.

Join us to hear how we try to make it safe, not just while the bars are open, but through positive culture change, council policy, bespoke training and on-street interventions. Hear from:

• Newcastle City Council’s Licensing Policy refresh
• Community Safety’s Street Marshalls
• Rape Crisis Tyneside Northumberland about their Shout-Up! training delivered to bars and clubs
• Office of the Northumbria Police & Crime
• Commissioner on Active Bystander Training
• Anthea Sully, CEO of White Ribbon, about the White Ribbon Promise and how men and organisations can be allies and drivers of positive cultural change.

This event is funded by the Cooperative Councils’ Innovation Network: A Policy Lab sharing best practices on Tackling Violence Against Women and Girls (VAWG)”.
