Some tips on increasing your personal safety when out & about at night

Read more advice on keeping safe

Tell someone where you are!

Even the best plans can go awry on a night out! If you end up somewhere different to where people expect you to be, let someone know. Drop them a message or share your location on WhatsApp (or any other app with location settings!)

Nobody left behind!

If you’ve gone out as a group with friends, family or even colleagues, then it’s a great idea to follow the “nobody left behind” rule. Make sure that you know how everyone is getting home, and that no one is left behind without help.

Try to stay in
the light

Where possible, try to stay in well-lit, public areas. We will be working to see improvements in Guernsey’s street lighting and CCTV in public areas, but you can help by making sure you stay in areas that are busy, where you can be seen and where you can see your surroundings.

Tell someone if you
feel uncomfortable
or unsafe

You deserve to have a safe, fun night out. If someone is making you feel uncomfortable or unsafe then tell someone like a member of staff in a venue, security, police or even just your friends. We know this isn’t always easy, but we are working hard to make sure that, if you ask for help, you get it.

Be safe

Keep safe when you’re out and about at night. Take a torch to be able to see and be seen, download a safety app for alarm, location tracking and emergency contact features.
