London’s pubs, bars and clubs are failing to enforce a scheme that enables women on a night out to use a safe word to venue staff if they feel under threat, an investigation has found.

The ‘Ask for Angela’ scheme aims to make bars and clubs safer at thousands of venues across the country to help people feeling vulnerable to get support.
