“That’s stalking!” —a video for sharing

We have produced a three-minute animated video to raise awareness of stalking. It is freely available.

It features two friends discussing the behaviour of an ex-partner. This is duly recognised as stalking, safety advice is given, and the victim is supported in making a police report. The aim of the video is to raise awareness of seemingly ‘low risk’ behaviours and encourage people to seek help.

As with all our work, our mission is to ensure victims recognise stalking for what it is, that friends and family are able to support them and give good advice, and that criminal justice professionals are equipped to respond appropriately to suspected stalking cases.

We hope this easily accessible video will go a long way to helping achieve this and encourage everyone to share it as widely as possible.

This video, released in December 2021, aims to complement our other resources which include freely available PSHE lessons for 14-16 years olds, training packages for teaching professionals, and support advice for those suffering from unwanted attention.
