Violence against women and girls

Safe Haven are locations that offer a safe space if you:  

• feel threatened 

• are being harassed on the street 

• are unwell 

• need some help 

How to recognise a Safe Haven 

To recognise a Safe Haven, look for the Safe Haven sign in the windows of shops and buildings. Someone in the Safe Haven can help you. 

How Safe Haven staff can help you 

Staff at these locations are trained to support anyone who feels unsafe. They also help those who have been harassed.  

Safe Haven staff can:  

• call a taxi for you 

• contact family/friends 

• allow you to charge your phone 

• signpost to transport 

• if required, make a phone call to the emergency services or signpost to other support services
