About Ask for Angela
Ask for Angela is a nationally recognised safety initiative that enables individuals to discreetly leave uncomfortable or potentially dangerous situations in licensed venues.
In Southend-on-Sea, participating venues display Ask for Angela signage and train staff to respond quickly and sensitively. If someone feels unsafe, they can ask for “Angela” — a discreet code that signals they need assistance.
No questions. No fuss. Just support.
Why this training matters
Displaying signage is important — but confident staff response is critical.
This course ensures you:
- Recognise when someone needs help
- Respond calmly and professionally
- Follow clear safeguarding steps
- Know when and how to escalate

Who it’s for
