Creating safer streets for women and girls
Overview
Violence Against Women and Girls is defined as crime that disproportionately affects women and girls including, but not limited to, domestic abuse, sexual violence, exploitation and harassment, stalking, verbal abuse and violence and forced prostitution. These crimes should not be happening and we want to work with you to understand which areas of Arlen Hill can be improved to make our women and girls feel safer when walking through the streets. If you have experienced any crimes in Arlen Hill, and you are a woman, please click on the link below to highlight where these crimes took place so we can make our borough a safer and happier place to live and work.
