How you can stay safe

Be prepared

• Keep emergency contact numbers with you, including campus security numbers
• Carry a mobile telephone, and program your emergency numbers into your phone
• Use the campus security escort service
• Use the security shuttle bus service
• Carry a personal alarm

Walking on campus

• Make sure you use well-lit pathways at night
• Look around you - if things don't look right, go back inside the building and call the police or security
• Walk confidently at a steady pace

If you have a car

• If possible, park your car close to your building in a well-lit, busy area
• Don't leave valuable items in your car
• Lock all your car doors and windows when you leave your car
• Consider installing security technology in your car
• Before you return to your car, check the surrounding area
• If you notice any strangers hanging around the car park, call security or the police
• Carry your keys in your hand so you can get into your car quickly

Working after hours or at night

• If possible, try to avoid working at night
• Keep the doors locked, even while you are in the building
• Make sure there is someone else in the building that you know (staff, students, or building attendant)
• Walk with a friend to the car park or public transport terminal
• If you are alone, ask a security guard to escort you to the car park or public transport terminal
• If you are taking public transport, make sure you know your timetable to avoid waiting alone
