Get Home Safe
25th April 2002

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A number of agencies in South Belfast recently launched a partnership initiative to help people who socialise in the area to Get Home Safe.

Get Home Safe also applies to all students across the University’s four campuses.

Recent reports in the media have highlighted the need for students to take care when out socialising. No one wants to spoil anyone's fun - the message is HAVE A GOOD NIGHT but GET HOME SAFE.

Please try to follow the guidelines below and help ensure that you and your friends Get Home Safe:

Arrange transport home in advance
Avoid going to a pub, club or party alone
Don’t become isolated from your friends
Never leave your drink unattended
Never accept a drink from someone you don’t know or trust
If you begin to feel drunk, dizzy or disorientated, seek help from a trusted friend or a member of the pub/club staff
Never walk home alone
Carry a Personal Attack Alarm - available from Students Union
If someone threatens you, shout and scream for help
If you are attacked report it to Police immediately, specialist units are available to deal with sexual offences in a sensitive and confidential manner.

If you have any questions/concerns the Community Liaison Officer is available to give you advice, as is the Education and Welfare Officer at the Student’s Union.

Remember Enjoy Yourself – But Get Home Safe.
