Ask Angela
What is "Ask Angela"
The “Ask Angela” programme started in Lincolnshire by Inspector Hayley Crawford. "Ask For Angela" is named in remembrance of Angela Crompton, a woman who was abused and killed by her husband in 2012 when an argument about redecorating a house got out of control.
Since the launch in 2016 it has been adapted around the UK to help promote safety and wellbeing for anyone who finds themselves vulnerable.
Enjoy Wolverhampton BID have been working really hard with a wide range of over 50 city centre businesses to provide the training tools needed to ensure anyone who feels unsafe or vulnerable can ask for assistance using the code word “Ask Angela “ at any of the below businesses and any member of the team can support by either taking you to a safe space, assisting with a safe way home or reuniting you with friends.
In Wolverhampton the scheme has grown, branching out to daytime businesses as well as night-time venues.
