The ‘Jog On’ scheme deploys female officers undercover as joggers to identify and catch offenders who harass women in public spaces. This proactive campaign responds to alarming findings from a University of Worcester study revealing that 68 percent of female runners have experienced some form of harassment while exercising outdoors. The project aims to tackle the misogynistic and predatory behaviour directed at women simply enjoying a run or walk.
