Go out at night without fear
Safe night-time travel for everyone
Our shared minibuses offer waiting inside, door-to-door travel, CCTV, live tracking, a discrete safety alert, accountability of passengers, and drivers trained in safeguarding and conflict management who are there to look out for you and curb bad behaviour.
“When I heard about what Fleet wanted to do, I just felt a huge sense of relief”
We carried out extensive research to really understand what people need to feel safe at night.
Our research showed that 10% of women don’t go out at all after 9pm. That’s not ok.
But why don’t you just get a taxi?
59% of people feel unsafe travelling by taxi and although most taxi drivers are great, our Freedom of Information requests to police forces revealed troubling statistics, with similar stats for physical assaults.
Taxis are too expensive for many people, and not a viable option for those travelling to and from work. Our shared minibuses offer the benefits of a taxis without the price tag or surge pricing.
Let’s make night-time safer
“I was on the tram and a man repeatedly kept asking to use my phone. I wouldn’t let him and tried to ignore him, and I got off the tram and he got off at the same stop and followed me home. It was terrifying.”

Sexual violence affects us all, but we can change it.

Where we’re heading
Our first step is to run a pilot from Forge nightclub, then build out the service with more minibuses and expand out throughout the city. Once we’re established, we will take Fleet to other cities around the UK.
We need your support, big or small, it will all help. £500 will train a driver, £750 will get the app going for a month, £2000 will run our pilot for a weekend.
