A new night-time safety charter designed to keep people safe has been launched in Liverpool. 
It is a list of safety pledges that bars, clubs and restaurants which are open from 6pm – 6am agree to sign up to. 
By signing the charter, employers are communicating their commitment to a zero-tolerance stance on harassment and improving the safety of their staff and customers.
It will also benefit staff and customers in shops, gyms/leisure centres, transport, hotels, and cultural and hospitality venues after dark.
The charter promotes the ‘Ask for Angela’ scheme which enables anyone feeling unsafe, threatened, or vulnerable to discreetly seek help. This could be on a date or night out, when working out in the gym or just popping to the local shop.
Liverpool City Council is working with partners including Merseyside Police and Nightlife CIC on the night-time safety charter, which will offer:
▪️Free staff training
▪️Advice on how to help customers, and staff, report harassment and unacceptable behaviour
▪️Promotional material about the scheme to communicate with customers and staff
We spoke with Iwona Kossek, Co-director of Ask for Angela about the new scheme.

Samantha Womack is back in Liverpool. This time playing Pippa in the award-winning theatre production, Dear England. 🥳
The show is on right now at Liverpool Empire and is already getting great reviews. The powerful hit play tells the story of the impact of Gareth Southgate’s leadership. 
Sam tells us why this show has connected with audiences across the country, even if you’re not a football fan. And Sam says it will most definitely connect with Liverpool audiences too.
