Reclaim the Night march

The 16 Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence is an international campaign that calls for an end to violence against women and girls (VAWG). Taking place each year from 25 November, the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women, to 10 December, Human Rights Day, the campaign raises awareness, promotes action, and encourages communities to stand together against gender-based violence.

As part of this global movement, Reclaim the Night provides an opportunity for local communities to come together and take a stand against violence towards women and girls. The march highlights a simple but powerful message: women should be able to go about their daily lives, at any time of the day or night, free from fear, harassment and violence.

The event is led each year by Gloucestershire Rape and Sexual Abuse Centre and this year is organised in partnership with Forest of Dean District Council.
