Anyone who experiences street harassment in our region can now report it via the app which I hope will lead to more people reporting unacceptable behaviour.

The Mayor and I are determined to ensure everyone in our region feels safe. But we know that too often, for women and girls in particular, the streets, town and city centres don’t feel safe, and many incidents go unreported.

Women's Centres - York and North Yorkshire Combined Authority – Policing, Fire and Crime Team
We commission two women’s centres, one in York and one in Scarborough. These are safe, women-only spaces offering holistic and trauma-informed support.

The centre includes rooms for both one-to-one and group sessions, where support can be delivered by professionals and partner agencies in a person-centred way. There are also kitchen facilities, laundry and bathroom facilities which have been invaluable in the region’s other women’s centre in York.

It was fantastic to join partners at the opening day last month as part of our wider mission to reduce levels of violence against women and girls in our region and deliver safe places for everyone.

I will continue to work closely with the Senior Officer team at North Yorkshire Fire & Rescue Service, supporting them as well as holding the Service to account, to build on this progress going forward.
