Safe Places
Description
Safe Places is a nationwide scheme intended to provide safe, supportive environments for vulnerable people if they feel scared or at risk while they are out and about in the community. Their free-to-use Safe Places apps show all the Safe Places in districts that have decided to make the apps available.
The apps have a function called 'Get me to my nearest Safe Place Now' (panic button) which immediately directs you to the nearest open Safe Place. If no Safe Place is located within a 15-minute walk it will automatically offer to call the non-emergency 101 number to get help over the phone.
