We had a lot of positive feedback. Most men were simply not aware of the issue, or the safety measures women take every time they walk alone. It gave a lot of my male colleagues some starting points on conversations to bring home to their children too, which is very important\u201d.<\/p>\n<p><strong>&#8211; Nicola Tobin, Associate Director, Mace <\/strong>[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator color=&#8221;white&#8221;][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]&#8221;Poppy\u2018s creation of the BE LADS Campaign adds great value, support and a fresh dimension to our various consortium activities to prevent violence against women and girls and domestic abuse. Men have a fundamental role to play in improving safety for women, and the BE LADS Campaign is a highly effective initiative to give practical advice to men who want to help. I hope to see many City of London organisations engage with BE LADS.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>&#8211; Don Randall MBE, Chair of City of London Crime Prevention Association<\/strong>[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator color=&#8221;white&#8221;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]\u201cPoppy\u2019s BE LADS Campaign is really helping shift the perspectives and notions surrounding violence against women and girls. For too long the focus has been on the actions of victim-survivors as opposed to the actions of the perpetrators. The BE LADS campaign is a seriously informative piece of work that has a place in our education facilities, police forces, and, quite honestly, any workplace.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>&#8211; Joshua Williams, MVAWG Business Command, Bedfordshire Police<\/strong>[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator color=&#8221;white&#8221;][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]&#8221;Poppy\u2018s presentation was insightful and incredibly well put together.

Our feedback from participants was that they found the sessions informative, inspiring, and engaging, and are taking the learning from the session to input into social action projects that they are now leading upon.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>&#8211; Sam Mardle, Schools Education Manager, Chelsea FC Foundation<\/strong>[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/section>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row full_width=&#8221;stretch_row&#8221; bg_position=&#8221;center center&#8221; bg_attachment=&#8221;fixed&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1699942107422{background: #000000 url(https:\/\/belads.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/background.jpg?id=9) !important;background-position: center !important;background-repeat: no-repeat !important;background-size: cover !important;}&#8221;&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/belads.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/150"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/belads.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/belads.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/belads.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/belads.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=150"}],"version-history":[{"count":20,"href":"https:\/\/belads.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/150\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":171,"href":"https:\/\/belads.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/150\/revisions\/171"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/belads.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=150"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
