Organisers of Sarah Everard vigil speak out on women's safety

The Evening Standard's Helena Wadia speaks to one of the organisers of Reclaim These Streets, a series of vigils taking place across the UK following the disappearance of Sarah Everard.  Jessica Leigh is among those behind an event taking place at the bandstand in Clapham Common at 6pm on Saturday. She says they'll be calling for streets to be safe for women, regardless of what they wear, where they live or what time of day or night it is. A survey for UN Women UK, published this week, found that 97 per cent of women aged 18-24 said they have been sexually harassed. Similar vigils are due to be held across the UK.  Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
