Reclaim the Night
What is Reclaim the Night?
Reclaim the Night is an international movement against sexual violence. In Bristol supporters organise vigils to remember those affected by sexual violence and march to demonstrate our right to walk the streets at night. We organise rallies and club nights to raise funds for a local service and to celebrate the achievements of the organisations and individuals who work to support victims of sexual violence. More details on the Reclaim the Night movement can be found here.
Aims and Achievements of Reclaim the Night
We want Reclaim the Night to be more than an evening of events and hope to make a lasting change in our city. In consultation with local service providers, we have suggested actions to achieve a positive difference by supporting victims, education to prevent rape and increasing the conviction rate of rapists. More details of the aims and achievements of Reclaim the night can be found here.
