In this episode of the HJ Talks About Abuse podcast, hosts Danielle Vincent and Hannah delve into a British Transport Police report from 2024, highlighting a 50% increase in violence against women and girls on public transport in London. They discuss the alarming statistics, with reported crimes rising from under 8,000 in 2021 to nearly 12,000 in 2023. The conversation explores public awareness, the potential for increased reporting due to better accessibility, and the significance of bystander intervention. The episode emphasises the importance of discussion and awareness in addressing and reducing such crimes.
