Angela Crompton was killed by her husband in 2012 , with her name becoming the codeword for people to use to seek help at bars and pubs if they feel unsafe.

The Ask for Angela scheme allows people who feel unsafe in bars or clubs to discreetly seek help.

BBC undercover filming revealed that more than half of venues failed to respond correctly to the safety initiative.

13.1 m in public funds has been allocated to Ask for Angela projects through the Home Office's Safer Streets Fund since 2021 .

Funding spans 22 police forces and local authorities across the UK .

Greene King said it had implemented extra training at its venues, increased safety signage and introduced formal documentation requirements.
