Petition Fund self-defence classes for women and girls to help them protect themselves
The Government should fund free self-defence classes for woman and girls from all backgrounds and ages, to enable them to more safely escape potentially dangerous situations.
More details
Because women from lower income backgrounds and younger girls who are most at risk may not have as much access to self-defence classes and it would help make women feel safer especially in walking home at night to know they have a means of protecting themselves should the worst happen.
