Supporting Women and Girls in West Lothian

The Supporting Women and Girls initiative (opens new window) aims to help women feel safer in West Lothian's public spaces and places. 

We want to encourage women and girls to tell us about any public spaces and places that they feel are unsafe. This may include practical concerns such as dark walkways or overgrown public paths where visibility is poor. The information we receive will be collated and appropriate action will be undertaken to make improvements where possible. You can tell us about these places by filling in our online woman and girls safety form (opens new window).
