Reclaim the streets: Bournemouth University students form friendship on scary walk home

The disappearance of Sarah Everard has once again raised the issue of women's safety.

Bournemouth university student Lauren Oakley was being followed by a car while walking home from a party last year. The driver of the car made communication and drove slowly as he continued on the same route as her.

Shannon McDavitt was also on her way home, and stepped in to help Lauren book a taxi back to her house.
