Ask for Angela Scheme

Asked by Sir Mark HendrickLabour (Co-op)Home OfficeTabled Answered 9 September 2025UIN 70320

The question

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what metrics are used to assess the (a) uptake and (b) effectiveness of the Ask for Angela scheme; and what information her Department holds on its usage in licensed venues.

Answered by Jess Phillips

Ask for Angela is not a Government scheme and therefore the Home Office does not hold information on the metrics to assess uptake and effectiveness. The scheme may hold relevant information and can be contacted online at: https://askforangela.co.uk/contact-us/
