Anti-Harassment Training
Category: Careers & Work, Equality, Health & Wellbeing
These free 30 minute webinars were developed by the Suzy Lamplugh Trust and are designed to empower delegates to be active bystanders when they see harassment taking place, without putting their own personal safety at risk.
Research from both L’Oréal Paris and the Suzy Lamplugh Trust has found that 80% of women in the UK have reported experiencing harassment in public spaces and 88% of people in the UK have experienced some form of unwanted behaviour on public transport in the past five years despite reduced footfall during the pandemic, with the most common behaviours being staring, intimidatingly sitting or standing right by someone, and verbal abuse. However, 84% of people said it improved the situation when someone intervened.
The webinars are available to book throughout the year, focusing on the 5 D’s of bystander intervention, which was originally pioneered by Right To Be.
