The aim of the Safe Place Scheme is to provide reassurance to vulnerable people and their carers, or people who find themselves in challenging situations, so that they can live more independent lifestyles with help available when they are out and about in the community.
How does the scheme work?
Businesses who are part of the scheme will display the safe place sticker, meaning that a vulnerable person can go in and ask for help.
If a vulnerable person seeks help, members of staff would be expected to make a phone call if necessary, provide a temporary safe haven for vulnerable people and to reassure them and keep them safe until help and support arrives.
