Street Harassment is a Human Rights Crisis – Help Us End It

Police Chiefs have warned that violence against women and girls (VAWG) has reached epidemic levels, with over 3,000 offences recorded daily, and countless more going unreported.

According to UN Women UK, over 70% of women and girls in the UK have experienced public sexual harassment, yet 95% never report it, believing nothing will change.

To tackle this, we created the award-winning Start Safe Stay Safe App, a simple, safe, and effective way to report street harassment, capture evidence, and access support.

While this began as an app with women and girls in mind, the app also supports other marginalised communities, including LGBTQI+ people, disabled people, people of faith, and those from alternative subcultures.

Join us in bringing this vital service to your community.

The Start Safe Stay Safe App offers 24/7 access for anyone affected by street harassment to report incidents in public spaces, capture evidence, and get support, all in one secure and easy-to-use platform.

Many people, especially women and marginalised groups, don’t feel safe or confident reporting harassment to the police. Our app bridges that gap, offering a trusted alternative that puts people in control.

This data also helps local authorities and services understand patterns of harassment in their communities, informing prevention strategies and safeguarding efforts.

The app empowers individuals, increases reporting from those least likely to go through official channels, and contributes to a safer, more responsive public environment.

The Start Safe Stay Safe App was recognised and awarded the Innovation and Futureproofing Award at the Helpline Partnership Helpline Awards 2023.

Testimonials

‘A genuinely useful App. Keep it on your Home screen for recording something in a hurry. In a stressful situation, I find it hard to remember to record something but this is a really good prompt and lets you submit it straight away.’

‘A simple to use app that every one should have. Like the fact it records & logs it if you’re in the middle of something too!’
