Streetlightuk

One of the things we do at StreetlightUK is partner with the police and provide them with training courses so they can better their approaches and understanding of the issue.

Women in prostitution are often stigmatised and so we aim to change this public perception, particularly within law enforcements.

Day 1 of 5, with big smiles all round😁! Thank you to those that have donated to help support the fight against violence toward women.
