6th April 2024 Rosie Jones, aged 31 I entered the cafe with my 2 year old and husband. The person who touched me was talking to the women behind the counter he then turned to leave walking towards where I was stood. He raised his hand and I wrongly assumed he was going to place it on my...

I was in a club for someone’s 18th and a boy I knew who was also 18 would keep coming up to me and my friends and groping us from behind.
Aged 16 2017 My younger male friend was (thankfully) walking me home through Hope Street Park in the later evening. We saw an older man in the middle of the park must’ve been late 30s at the time with a girl who I knew and was 16. He was stood over her and she was almost unconscious on...
Kylie Aged 18 2016 My drink had been spiked and I could barely even hold my own head up, was vomiting down myself and was slumped over a table. Rather than helping me or seeing if they could check CCTV to see who had done it, they grabbed me by my wrists and carried me out of the club...
Jessica Aged 26 I walked past a building site (scaffolding on a house) and one of the scaffolders shouted “you alright you love? I could do with a woman like you on this building site.” It instantly killed my mood. I was just trying to walk to school to pick up my son. Things like this...
Aged 22 2024 I was stood at the bar ordering a drink whilst my friends were sat at a table not too far away. An older man came up behind me, put both his arms around me on the bar, pushed himself against me and proceeded to kiss my cheek. I asked him to move and leave me alone but he...
2024 Aged 21 It was around 7.30pm. I was waiting at the tram stop and a man approached me. He mentioned the weather and we made small talk while we waited for the tram. At first, I thought he was just being friendly until he asked me what my name was and where I lived. I gave him a fake...
2024 Aged 61 I believe I was spiked in a bar in Lytham. Talking to many other women in the St Annes and Lytham area this has happened to them too in the same place. I’m 61 years old and the doormen said it was caused by me taking drugs. I’ve never touched a drug in my life – I...
Ayva I wasn’t sure about posting this but everyone should be aware. I was out in St Anne’s when I became light headed and very faint and my lips started to swell up. I started being unable to breathe properly and headed outside with my sister. My legs then were unable to walk...
Annabel, aged 19 2019 I was out on a night out with a friend and was at the bar when I bent over to tie my shoelace. A man (who I didn’t know and hadn’t spoken to at all that night) towered over the top of me and smacked me on my bum. I stood up straight, in shock of what had...
Jess, aged 26 2024 When on a night out with friends I walked past a small group of people near the bar to go to the toilet, on my way past a man commented loudly “that ass!” I turned and confronted him and he became very defensive stating that he had been at a funeral that day as if that...
2023 and 2024 Aged 22 and 23 There has been a couple of times where I have been out with a very small group of gal friends (who would never ever ever let anything happen to me) when this particular bar has been very quiet and we’ve all left feeling very unwell. We used to come in for...
2024 Aged 22 The bar staff behaved in an inappropriate manner – very derogatory and misogynistic. Played it off as a laugh but was quite concerning. Normal people take no for an answer. Just because you wear a nice outfit and feel confident does not mean men can belittle you and make you...
2004 Aged 17 I went with a friend (we worked together too) to meet some boys we knew from school at one of their houses. She was seeing one of the boys and the other was just a friend of mine. She went upstairs with one and left me with the other. We were sat on the sofa watching tv and...

Driver stopped and shouted abuse and swore at us for trying to cross the road in the dark and rain.
