Since 2021 we have been providing a safeguarding and welfare service.

Volunteering in Northampton Town Centre on Friday and Saturday we work in partnership with the OPFCC, Northamptonshire Police, East Midlands Ambulance Service, Northampton Street Pastors & Local venues with one aim. To ensure the safety of Female and Males within the night time economy.

After the tragic events of 2016 that lead to the murder of India Chipchase, We hope we are able to prevent this from ever happening in our town again and spread awareness further a field so people enjoy themselves and stay safe.
