 Whilst
we do take every effort to make sure that the clubs, projects and
activities listed in our Things to Do section are all perfectly safe and
above board, there’s still some things you can do to take care of
yourself.
Most of these things are common sense, but we reckon they’re worth
repeating anyway so that we can help you have a safe and enjoyable time
no matter what club you’re planning to join.
Here then, our five tips for staying safe when going to a new club
•
Tell someone where you’re going
If not a parent or carer, then at least make sure a friend or other
relative knows where you’ll be.
•
Give them some info
Like an address and telephone number. It’s not like they’re going to be
checking up on you every five minutes, but at least they’ll know how to
get hold of the club in case of an emergency. You could even print off
the LINC Online page you found the info on, or at least show it to
someone.
•
Charge your mobile and get some credit
Oh, and don’t forget to take it with you! You never know when you might
need to contact somebody.
•
Plan your journey
So that you don’t get lost, which could put you in all sorts of danger.
You can use GMPTE’s journey planner, which we link to on all our Things
to Do listings.
•
Be home when you say you will be
If you’re not going to be, call somebody and let them know so that they
don’t worry about you.
