Safe Place

Safe Place is a scheme to help you if you get lost, scared or upset when you are out on your own

How it works

You can get a card where you write:

• your name
• the name and phone number of someone you trust

When you are out on your own remember to take the card with you.

If you get lost or scared or upset when you are out you can go to a Safe Place.

Spotting Safe Places

A Safe Place is an ordinary business or shop that has agreed to offer support if someone needs help. All these places will have a Safe Place sticker which you can see in the window.

A person needing a Safe Place can get help to contact a trusted person. The business or shop provides a safe place for the person to wait for their trusted person. There are lots of Safe Places around Hampshire and Southampton. The people listed below can help you find where the Safe Places are.
