J Jackie Clune 00:30 I'm Jackie clune. And every fortnight or so, I'll be interviewing Equity members in our virtual green room about the issues affecting them right now. Perhaps inspired by events either in the industry or the world at large. For this first episode, I'll be focusing on the issue of women's safety. Our profession often means late night travel, unsocial hours, and all the challenges other late night workers face. J Jackie Clune 00:58 The recent tragic murder of Sarah Everard, who was just walking home at 9:30pm has reopened the wider issue of how safe women feel on the streets at night. I'm sure most, if not all female Equity members, will be familiar with the tips and tricks we all use in order to feel safer getting home at night. Keys in your hand, stick to brightly lit streets. Have your phone at the ready, pretend to be talking to someone on it if need be.
