⚽ Heading to the pubs for the big match? As England continue their World Cup campaign, lets make sure the passion stays on the pitch and respect stays in our licensed venues.

Large crowds bring high energy, but tournament hype is never an excuse for misogyny, harassment, or intimidation. 

Deputy Police and Crime Commissioner Dr Fatima Eltinay previously joined officers in Chesterfield to promote the Call It Out campaign. This initiative targets gender-based violence and empowers the community to tackle Violence Against Women and Girls (VAWG) head-on.

By standing by and saying nothing, we inadvertently encourage harmful actions. If you are out watching the football, do your part to keep the atmosphere positive:

👀 Spot the signs: Watch for inappropriate conduct like leering, cat-calling, or persistent, unwanted staring.
🗣️ Call it out: Have the confidence to challenge disrespectful jokes or toxic behaviour from friends if it is safe to do so.
🤝 Support safe venues: Cooperating night-time venues across Chesterfield and wider Derbyshire enforce a zero-tolerance approach and will eject anyone displaying abusive behaviour.

Lets look out for one another. If a friends behaviour falls short, call them out.

Report concerns to venue staff, call 101, or log unsafe locations using the Derbyshire Police StreetSafe Tool: https://www.derbyshire.police.uk/notices/street-safe/street-safe/

Always dial 999 in an emergency. 🚨

Deputy PCC Dr. Fatima Eltinay showed support for retail workers by visiting Morrisons in Bolsover to highlight the ongoing work to tackle retail crime, promote safer workplaces and the work of the #ShopKind campaign.

Fatima met with staff to hear their concerns, understand the unique challenges they face and discussed how partners are working together to protect them.

Earlier this year, Derbyshire OPCC launched their campaign to ‘Fight Back Against Retail Crime’ alongside the work done year-round by the Business Crime Reduction Partnership to tackle retail crime in our communities. 

Tougher penalties are also now in place, with the assault of a retail worker now being a specific criminal offence, ensuring tougher penalties for those who commit violence or abuse in shops.
