Safe Places

A safe place is where anyone who might need a little more help and support when they are out and about in the community can call in to get assistance.

Members of the scheme carry a 'keep safe' card. On the card there is a contact number for their named responder and the safe place can contact the person's responders to make sure someone who knows them the best can come to take them home.

The safe place will make sure that the person is safe and feels comfortable until their responder is able to attend.

To find out more about Safe Places in North Yorkshire or to register onto the scheme please contact us.
