For four years, Safer Gigs for Women UK has been a volunteer-run community effort to promote awareness of sexual assault at music events. They pop-up at festivals and events offering resources, merch and support to patrons. They work with venues to ensure they take on reports seriously, and with bands to recognise minimum standards about acceptable behaviours in gig-goers and how to promote.

Safer Venues WA advocates and celebrates on the unceded lands of the Whadjuk Noognar people. We pay our respects to Elders past and present. We pay deep respect to the rich knowledge, culture, music and songlines in the continuation of their culture for the past 45,000+ years in South Western Australia.
Safer Venues WA Online Toolkit is proudly supported by the Department of Local Government, Sport and Cultural Industries, with thanks to photographer Jim Hall.
