Has anyone watched this documentary yet? If you haven't it's worth a watch even though it's hard hitting. The message I took away from this is ask your mates 'how they are' twice? The first response is usually a automatic reply of 'I'm fine; or 'OK' but if you ask again you may get a more truthful response.

Stay alert and stay safer, with WalkSafe

Sadly, safety can’t be guaranteed

but by downloading the WalkSafe app you are taking control, investing in your safety and the safety of your loved ones available to download on the Apple and Google App stores

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
We all value our safety, but danger is a fact of life

Even when walking we make bad decisions because we don't know where the dangers lie. We increasingly worry about mugging, violence and knife crime

These dangers are numerous, hidden, changing and unknown - it's impossible to know them all, all the time

The WalkSafe map visualises crime reports published monthly by the Police - this helps users to see where serious crimes have been committed, to spot patterns and to identify regular trouble spots. We publish key data twice weekly. The WalkSafe app also scans the road ahead - alerting our users when they walk near to areas that have seen reports of knife attacks, sexual assault, mugging and pickpocketing. No one can predict where the next crime will be, however, we believe being informed and staying alert is the key to staying safer.

WalkSafe provides the information and intuitive features that allow you to regularly check areas of crime, identify trouble spots and take action. Plan a safer route, check your regular routes and help your loved ones stay safer with WalkSafe.

Sadly, safety can't be guaranteed

But by downloading the WalkSafe app you are taking control, investing in your safety and the safety of your loved ones

Stay alert and stay safer with WalkSafe
