Girls Against
Age: 15-18
Location: Glasgow

Motivated by personal experience, Hannah Camilleri, Anni Cameron, Anna Cowan, Ava Cadenhead and Bea Bennister, all between the ages of 15 and 18, used social media to launch a movement against sexual harassment at gigs that has grown to nearly 14,000 supporters and gathered the support of bands, festivals, and venues across the country.
The group started with a focus on raising awareness and now they have seen festivals and music venues approach them, and the security company SecuriGroup have introduced additional training to deal with the issue of sexual harassment at gigs.
Their badges went up for sale three months ago and they recently accepted applications for Girls Against representatives around the country and internationally.
