Active Bystander training

Switch on to Women's Safety - learn how to run ‘active bystander’ workshops for men

85% of women in Leeds have been harassed in the street and more than 20% have been sexually assaulted or raped. Our ‘Switch on to Women’s Safety’ workshop supports men to understand women’s experiences and find practical tools, ideas and solutions to do something about it while keeping themselves safe. It harnesses the empathy that men feel towards victims and builds their confidence by showing them that they can and in most cases have already made interventions that can make girls and women feel safe and respected.
