Safe Places

Safe Places registration form

Vulnerable people who feel lost or upset can now find a safe space in a number of buildings across Newport displaying a Safe Places sticker.

Participating organisations and businesses will support vulnerable people if they need assistance by:

  • getting in touch with a nominated person
  • offering advice
  • calling 101 (if appropriate)

Those who feel they would benefit from the scheme can request a special card which will give details of who can be contacted if they need assistance. 

Safe Places is a national scheme which in Newport is being managed by the disabled children’s team but is open to both adults and young people.

The team will display the national safe place sticker to ensure individual know this is an approved safe place.

The new scheme will support the Trinity Protocol operated by Gwent Police. This allows a young person or family member to log their details so they will understand how best to support them.

All Newport police stations and Newport Live venues are part of the Safe Places scheme.

To apply for a card or to enquire about becoming part of the scheme, email [email protected] or call 01633 414745.
