Misogyny Campaigns

Requested Wed 18 October 2023
Responded Tue 24 October 2023

Please could you provide me with the following information, under the FoI Act:

A breakdown of the amount your authority has spent on campaigns combating misogyny since January 2021.

I understand some of the money may not have been spent yet but if you can provide me with how much has been budgeted for the campaign that would be great. This includes spend on advertising, PR and marketing advice, and so on.

Response

Hastings Borough Council has spent no money or budgeted for any misogyny campaigns.

We did participate in the VAWG project (Violence against Women and Girls) (Safer Streets round 3) managed by the Sussex Police and Crime Commissioner's office:
