Personal Safety


  • If you have an AVO carry it with you at all times.
  • Tell your family and friends. Try to have people around you.
  • Trust your instincts. If you don't feel safe in a situation - GET OUT.
  • Check doors and windows around the house are secure and lockable.
  • Talk to your neighbours. Ask them to call the police if they are concerned about your safety.
  • Have quick access to a phone - borrow a mobile phone if necessary, at home have a cordless phone close to hand.
  • Always call 000 in an emergency rather than the local police station. Not all stations are staffed at all times.
