Hi everyone,
 
On International Women’s Day, we reached 200,000 supporters, a massive milestone. We want to thank you for all your support, and show you this is creating change.

In the last few weeks we’ve been covered in Metro, HuffPost, British GQ and Marieclaire, twice!
 
What this shows is that together, we’ve started a conversation around the problem of public sexual harassment (PSH). We've put it on the agenda, and that’s down to all of you.
 
Although our campaign is about demanding legal change, it is also about creating a cultural shift in our attitudes towards public sexual harassment. Having a public conversation about the prevalence and impact of this problem is forcing society to question why this behaviour is deemed acceptable and left unchallenged. We believe that this change in cultural attitudes is fundamental to ending public sexual harassment.

Let us know what you think on our Instagram @OurStreetsNow, Twitter @NowStreets or in the comments below!
