I talked with Katy Sadler and Sarah Taylor Silverwood from Feminist Work for Change about women’s safety in public space. We touched upon the public response to the murders of Sarah Everard , Blessing Olusegun, Nicole Smallman, and Biba Henry and how women are sharing their safety precautions when entering public space, especially at night. We also talked around abuse and harassment in schools and the need for education to be more encompassing and start by breaking down gender stereotypes. 

Katy Sadler and Sarah Taylor Silverwood work in the arts in Birmingham. They are both members of Feminists Work for Change a working group for the West Midlands that aims to address issues affecting the lives of women and girls, and to create positive change in the immediate and longer term, locally and nationally.
