What the petition asks

At around 9.15pm on Friday 31 July 2015 a15-year-old victim was walking through the subway which connects Jubilee Way and Bolton Street.
A man pushed her up against the wall and sexually assaulted her, before walking off when she threatened to call for help.
On this incident the girl managed to scare her attacker and he left her alone. What if he had been more dangerous? It could have been alot worse!

The time to act is now, get signing the petition and help our children help themselves if they ever need to.
