Product Information

Personal safety alarms are growing in popularity in the UK and are one of the most effective defence tools the are legal in the UK - no pepper spray isn't legal in the UK! Often both the complainant and accused are known to each other and often they are the only direct witnesses. These issues are not present in every case, and they are in no way insurmountable barriers to prosecution. However they are some of the very real challenges that our specialist teams face down every day when building cases to charge and prosecute rape. They will gather evidence relating to the suspect and if required, with your consent, will take you to the Sexual Assault Referral Centre for a medical examination. Our officers will do everything they can to put you at ease and feel as comfortable as possible.

Striking the balance between the needs and rights of victims and those of suspects is paramount to RASSO 2025, so all parties can have confidence that they will be treated fairly. The legal and evidential requirements needed to effectively, efficiently and fairly proceed with a rape prosecution can be significant to overcome. Sexual offences typically occur in a private place between two individuals with little or no direct corroborating evidence. It is necessary under the law for the prosecution to provide evidence not only that a person did not consent to the act but that the perpetrator did not reasonably believe that they were consenting.Along with my colleagues who work in our specialist rape and serious sexual offence (RASSO) units around the country I understand the importance of robustly prosecuting these offences where the evidence meets our legal test; in the first instance for the victims but also for the good of the public at large. It is often highlighted that rape and serious sexual offences present particular challenges to the criminal justice system. The CPS national operating model for the prosecution of adult rape cases is a framework that encompasses best practice, policy and tools. The framework brings these initiatives together to set a new standard, providing greater consistency nationally across the CPS. Globally, 35% of women have experienced sexual harassment at least once in their lifetime. Data from countries with data available on rape report that less than 40% of women who experience sexual violence seek help, and of those, only 10% seek legal assistance. Recent surveys have indicated that one-third of female students in Britain had experienced sexual assault or unwanted advances while at college. But are universities doing enough? Some colleges have been criticised for not taking rape and sexual assault complaints seriously enough. Athena has a central button, a long press of three seconds will trigger a loud alarm, and it will notify your family and friends. You can also send a silent notification to your emergency instead of a loud alarm. 7. Safelet
