Cardiff: Do women feel safe walking in the city at night?

Do you feel safe walking around Cardiff at night?

Research by FOR Cardiff, a group representing businesses in the city, found one in five women said they did not venture out after dark because of concerns about safety.

The group has launched a 24-hour safety charter which encourages businesses in the city to train staff to recognise those in need.

Alexandra, 20, said: "I wouldn't say I feel exactly safe, so I tend to keep towards the light of shops."

Supt Arabella Rees from South Wales Police said tackling the issue of women's safety was "an absolute policing priority".
