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...

It only happened yesterday, I’ve told the police.
2023
Aged 17
I was followed by an older man, who kept saying he “just wanted to talk and say hello” while catcalling me.
2024 Aged 16 I was walking home from college when I saw two men approach on a narrower part of the pavement. When closer one of them said “I’ll let you past” followed by “I’ll let you past any day of the week” and “especially with that blue hair” and something else I couldn’t make out as...

Aged 24
A dark blue car was always waiting at end of Lime Grove for weeks. After a few weeks noticed the man inside was masturbating while watching me walk past at about 7:10 am every morning . Police informed.
4th February 2024 Aged 26 I had attended a busy gig at xxx, somewhere I had always felt comfortable being. I had a few beers but started to feel more drunk than I should have been. Didn’t think too much of it until I woke up the next morning with what appeared to be a needle mark in my...
I love the bar because of the music, but I’ve been harassed there multiple times. Men have grabbed my arse, my waist, squeezed past me whilst grabbing me as there’s “no space” which wasn’t true. One occasion that really stands out to me is when I dropped my ring on the floor. I bent down...
2024 Tamzin, aged 23 As a proud bisexual dating a proud pansexual man we’re no strangers to going into gay bars. For some reason I think people see me as a challenge. They see me and instantly label me as a lesbian they would like to “turn”. 2 different guys constantly approached me...
