Audiebant’s Research Sparks National Discussion on Public Safety
Audiebant’s latest research on public safety has gained national attention, with major outlets like the Mirror, Express, and Daily Star covering our findings. The survey of 2,000 adults revealed that half of Britons feel less safe than a decade ago, with 75% believing crime has risen. Nearly half (46%) fear being caught in an emergency, and 60% avoid large public events due to safety concerns.
National Press Highlights Safety Concerns
The Mirror, Express, and Daily Star emphasized the growing public anxiety around safety. London, Birmingham, and Manchester were ranked as the cities people feel most uneasy visiting, with underground car parks, train stations, and nightclubs being common locations of concern.
With Martyn’s Law set to take effect—requiring venues with over 200 people to have emergency response plans—Audiebant is committed to providing technology-driven safety solutions. Our spokesperson stressed that fear and confusion in crises lead to poor decision-making, but advanced AI-powered communication tools can provide real-time guidance to keep people safe.
Technology as a Solution
Existing public address (PA) systems need to evolve. Many lack the ability to deliver real-time, zoned, multilingual instructions that can effectively guide people during emergencies. Audiebant’s cutting-edge technology upgrades these systems, ensuring people receive the right information at the right time.
The Express highlighted that 49% of adults wouldn’t know where to seek safety in a shopping centre emergency. Social isolation adds to unease, with 34% of respondents not knowing their neighbours and 35% hesitant to let their children go out alone.
A Safer Future with Audiebant
As Martyn’s Law approaches, Audiebant remains dedicated to enhancing public safety. Our research has sparked national conversation, and we continue to develop innovative solutions that upgrade and supply mass zoned communication systems, reduce casualties, and provide clear emergency guidance with the addition of screen and mobile alerts for people with hearing difficulties to ensure communication for all.
