Share your experience – be it as a victim, a witness or a passer-by.  And make sure people hear the good and not just the bad bits.

Share it on this site through the Your Story section.  Share it when you go on radio phone-ins or write to the paper or talk in your community.   If you think the practical solutions we are pushing for make sense and the answer is giving people a dose of confidence, then please promote them.

Where a passer-by, policemen, lawyer or judge has done well praise them – to their face and/or in writing.  Ask them if it would be helpful if you told their boss or mentioned them when you share your experience on this website or in your community. 

Where someone’s done badly, don't be afraid to say so but be polite, don't lose your temper.  And if you’re putting out a bad experience in the public, it’s best not to name any individual.
