An evidence based and learning approach ensures Drinkaware’s campaigns and interventions make difference while increasing reach and impact. Inappropriate behaviour in pubs bars and clubs
Between 23rd June and 3rd July 2017, YouGov conducted a quota survey of 2,013 UK adults aged 18-24 through their online panel. Quotas were set based on the known population profile of adults aged 18-24, and the final data was weighted to reflect this profile.
Key findings
- Almost three quarters (72%) of 18-24 year old men and women who drink in bars, clubs or pubs surveyed said that they had seen sexual harassment* on a night out.
- 79% of women said they expected inappropriate comments, touching and behaviour to take place when they went out – either to themselves or to their female friends.
- Nearly two thirds (63%) of women and a quarter of men (26%) said that they had been on the receiving end of some form of sexual harassment themselves.
