Women in Mansfield urged to have their say on how safe they feel in gyms

Women across Nottinghamshire are being urged to take part in a survey about their experiences of attending gyms.

A simple online form has been set up as part of the Safer Streets initiative, in a bid to discover how safe women feel in the gym environment.

The results could help shape the local response to help make everyone feel comfortable when they are working out.

The Office of the Police and Crime Commissioner for Nottinghamshire, Nottinghamshire Police and local authorities, including Newark & Sherwood Council, are working together on the #SaferStreets project.
