147 Dawn Dines - Survival Tuesday - Drink Spiking


Listen Later

Spiking is a hugely under-reported problem that affects people the world over. Whether done by a friend as a ‘prank’, or with the intention of committing a far more serious offence, it’s wrong: we all have a right to know exactly what we’re putting into our bodies. 

That’s why Dawn established StopTopps, a UK-based nonprofit on a mission to stamp out drink spiking. She’s passionate about keeping vulnerable drinkers safe from opportunists and wants everyone to understand the dangers of drink spiking. 
Dawn Dines is the founder of Safe Original Style UK (SOS UK), the non-profit community interest company behind StopTopps. 
Dawn is passionate about empowering young people to keep themselves safe, by running educational workshops on alcohol & drug awareness, knife crime & anti-social behaviour cyberbullying and internet safety.
She has also worked with local authorities, supporting children in care and in secure units.
Dawn first pitched the idea of anti-drink-spiking lids on the BBC series Dragon’s Den and took the advice of Peter Jones that it would be more effective as a social enterprise, hence the creation of SOS UK..
