Personal Safety

Basic Street Sense

·             Wherever you are – on the street, in an office building or shopping mall, driving, waiting for  a bus or subway – stay alert and tuned in to your surroundings.

·             Send the message that you’re calm, confident, and know where you’re going.

·             Trust your instincts. If something or someone makes you uneasy, avoid the person or leave.

·             Know the neighborhoods where you live and work. Check out the locations of police and fire stations, public telephones, hospitals, or stores that are open late.

·             Look confident. Walk with your head up, as if you know where you are going. Keep your hands free – don’t walk about with them in your pockets.

·             Keep to well-used roads. Don’t use alleyways or short cuts.

·             Think ahead and plan your journey, avoiding deserted areas

·             In the dark, always stick to well-lit areas.

·             If you think you are being followed, cross the road.

·             If you start to be frightened, try not to panic. Always try to think around situations.

Public Transport

·            Use well-lighted, busy stops.

·            If someone harasses you, don’t be embarrassed. Look for help around you.

·            Watch who gets off with you. If you feel uneasy, walk directly to a place where there are other people.

Travel Tips

·            It is always worth letting someone know where you are going, the route you intend to take and when you expect to return. Plan your journeys – work out how to get there and back.

·            Put aside enough money for the return fare.

·            If you lose your fare money or ticket, speak to the driver/guard/ticket officer and explain. Carry some identification on you to prove that you are genuine.

·            Never be tempted to walk home alone, especially if it’s dark or you are unsure of the area.

If Someone Tries To Rob You

·         Report the crime to the police. Try to describe the attacker accurately. Your actions can help prevent others from becoming victims
