All three of Mrs Squire’s daughters have visited the centre as part of their education, including Libby when she was ten.
Mrs Squire feels Libby would have been impressed by projects like this.
She said “I think she’d be really pleased, she’d be really proud – especially with the schools package and what the Safety Centre is doing.”
Mrs Squire added that Libby “knew education was a gift and used to say that everybody had the right to learn”.
At the time of her death Libby was a student at the University of Hull.
The Safety Centre is a White Ribbon, external accredited organisation, which aims to support and empower young people across the country to understand the risks around violence against women and girls, for victims and perpetrators.
Maya Joseph-Hussain, the CEO of the Safety Centre, said “We’ve created this programme in response to a growing need to educate and empower young people to reduce the risk of anyone becoming a victim or perpetrator of violence today and in the future.”
She added “We’re committed to taking this project nationwide to protect young people, reduce the horrific statistics around femicide in the UK and to ensure we have safe, thriving communities for everyone today and in the future.”
