As warmer weather arrives and more people head outdoors to run, walk, cycle and exercise, getting “summer ready” is likely to feature high on many people’s lists. But while fitness goals are important, personal safety should be part of the routine too – particularly for women exercising outdoors.

Recent incidents involving attacks on women have once again highlighted the importance of remaining aware of our surroundings when spending time outdoors. This should not discourage people from staying active, but it is a reminder that a few simple precautions can help make outdoor exercise safer.
