Concerns about personal safety are rising across Wales, including here in the north.
00:06
Almost one in three locals say they feel unsafe walking home alone at night, and the same
00:11
goes for alleyways. Calls to services like StrutSafe are increasing as more people seek
00:15
support. Women are particularly affected. Nationally, almost two-thirds of those who
00:20
walk alone at night feel unsafe, a sharp rise from a few years ago. More people are also
00:26
taking extra steps to protect themselves, with four in 10 women now changing their behaviour.
00:31
Campaigners say more needs to be done to make towns across north Wales feel safer, including
00:36
better lighting and stronger action on harassment. Concerns are especially high in areas with
00:42
poor public transport, where people often have to walk long distances in the dark. There
00:46
are also calls for more CCTV in town centres, and better support for those reporting harassment
00:51
or feeling unsafe. Some local councils are considering expanding late-night transport
00:56
options to help people get home more safely.
