The local authorities umbrella body London Councils has launched Circle, a new smartphone app (Android and iPhone) designed to help people avoid threats to their personal safety when out and about in London - for instance, when travelling home from a night out.
Despite the impression given by the marketing for Circle, it could prove useful to those of us who don't fit the category of attractive young woman!
Interestingly, one information source refers to Enfield and Southwark Councils being involved in the Circle project - the same two councils which are also piloting the Trygve app, which includes some similar functions.
