Male friends (I have male friends here right?) - have you heard of Ask for Angela?

(A man in The Archers didn’t know of it and I was wondering how likely it is for men to be aware of it.)

in reply to Alexandra Lanes

yes, heard of it. Though I couldn't've remembered that the name was Angela specifically.
in reply to Alexandra Lanes

I recognise the general concept, but I can't remember what that particular name means.
in reply to Alexandra Lanes

I know of it, but I also heard (according to some research by a number of folk, possibly reported on Radio 4 ('You And Yours', perhaps)) that there were a number of venues that said they supported it, but where the staff hadn't actually been trained, so had no idea what the request meant.

(Edited to add a missing closing parenthesis. The shame!)

Yes, although I wasn't completely confident I remembered what exactly it was for (I did) nor that I'd remember the name on demand.
