Summary

On July 28, 1986, estate agent Suzy Lamplugh went to work as normal, preparing to meet a client. She was never seen again and no trace of her has ever been found. Suzy was declared legally dead, presumed murdered, in 1993. In response to her disappearance, her parents Paul and Diana set up the Suzy Lamplugh Trust, and over the last 40 years, the Trust has been responsible for vital work around personal safety and stalking. To mark the 40th anniversary of her disappearance, Jen caught up with Emma Linley-Clark, the Trust's interim CEO, to talk about its #40YearsShouldHaveBeenEnough campaign, the impact of its work, and why stalking seems to be such a challenge for the justice system. More information about the campaign and the Trust’s work, as well as information on the National Stalking Helpline, is available on the Trust’s website. Learn more about your ad choices.
