Offer drink testers in nightclubs ( testing to detect drug tampered drinks)
Reports of men/woman being spiked in night clubs is rising, especially Brighton where is it happening a lot. Clubs should be offering small testing kits for both men and woman, to help protect women and men and to keep them safe and put a stop to this.
It needs to be done to keep the rates of men and women being raped, sexually assaulted and theft rates down and to help protect people in night clubs/ bars. The effect of date rape drugs on a person after this has taken place can leave marks for life, mentally and physically. If you can test whilst in a bar/club, whilst on a date or just out for a drink either alone or with someone, and your drink comes out positive, you are already safer, you can report it and have more chance of this person being prosecuted.
