Help with activism?

I started a thread last night on how I had been groped in a bar.

On a personal level, I have contacted the bar to see if the incident was caught on CCTV and would like to take this to the police if possible.

On a broader social level, I am thinking of starting up some sort of local campaign but have no idea how to go about this. DH has a few media connections, but I wouldn't know what to do with them.

Has anyone got any experience/advice they could share with me?

I don't have any experience but you could try asking a local feminist group. The Everyday Sexism Project or Object may have some ideas or even have some current campaigns running.

I read your thread earlier and I am sorry for what happened to you. You handled yourself well.

Thanks Abigail I will have a look.

What would be the gist of the campaign? Is it to educate that groping is assault? Is it aimed at the police or public? Etc.

[BubblegumPie]

The public I think, something highlighting that it's unacceptable and how the pub/bar/club will support you if you are a victim?

[TheDoctrineOfSnatch]

Ok, then you need the clubs signed up first, I guess. Do you want them to have a "code of conduct"?

Have a look on the Feminist Activism board and see if anyone has done something like this before?
