The murder of Sarah Everard has led to a spike in demand for training on how to help if you see someone being harassed on the street, course providers in Britain said, as her killer was sentenced to spend the rest of his life in prison.

Everard's abduction from a residential street in London sparked outrage and demands for action to ensure the safety of women on the streets of the capital.
