Safe Places scheme
A scheme to provide safe places in the community where vulnerable people with learning disabilities can go if they get into trouble or feel unsafe, frightened or bullied.
A vulnerable person carries a Safe Places Help Card with their name and emergency contact details. Public premises (like shops, libraries, leisure centres, pubs) sign up to be officially known as a 'Safe Place' and display a window sticker. If a person needs help when they are in the community, they can show their Help card to a member of staff in a Safe Place. Someone will then call their emergency contact or the Police, while allowing them to sit in the Safe Place and feel safe.
