We’re there for you if you need help while out at night

Night Stars

There for you

While out at night, anyone can find themselves in a vulnerable situation, needing a helping hand. 

Night Stars are a team of volunteers who are there for you in your time of need to ensure you get home safely.

We can help provide you with water, directions, slippers, or just someone to talk to if you need it.

Night Stars is part of our Night Safety campaign.

Working in partnership with the Metropolitan Police and supported by Capital Arches Group, Northbank and Heart of London Business Alliance Business Improvement Districts, our Night Star volunteers are focused on working with the West End’s evening and night-time economy businesses to promote women’s safety and reduce violence against women and girls. 

The team will provide wider support to anyone who becomes vulnerable due to intoxication to reduce the risk to their safety or prevent them from becoming victims of crime.   

The Night Safety volunteers aim to make London’s nightlife safer for everyone. They provide a welcoming place for all and collaborate to ensure that Westminster’s nightlife remains a safe, inclusive and enjoyable experience for residents and visitors alike.

The Night Stars are recognizable at night due to their distinctive pink reflective vests. They operate in teams providing assistance and support to women and those in need or who are vulnerable due to intoxication. This can range from giving directions and handing out water or slippers, to assisting someone on the street who has lost or had their property stolen, or someone who has become vulnerable due to alcohol intoxication.
