Police support 'Ask for Angela' initiative

The Island's police are supporting the launch of an initiative designed to keep people safe on a night out.

The 'Ask for Angela' scheme has now been rolled out to bars, clubs and other licenced businesses across the Island.

It means those who feel unsafe, vulnerable or threatened can seek help discreetly by approaching staff and asking for 'Angela.'

Staff will then offer support, such as calling a taxi or security, without causing a scene.

The scheme is already well established in the UK.
