I  Am Me - Keep Safe Awards

Keep Safe is an award-winning initiative that started in Renfrewshire in response to feedback from the disabled community that there were times they did not feel safe when travelling independently.

The initiative is a partnership between I Am Me Scotland and Police Scotland and was originally developed to support disabled to participate in community life, free from fear of harassment and abuse. However, the initiative has received wide support and has continued to evolve to become a national network with over 800 Keep Safe places throughout Scotland. The initiative is available for anyone to use if they feel lost, scared, vulnerable or simply need some breathing space. 

 You can nominate any Keep Safe place that you think should be recognised with our very first Keep Safe Place Award.  To nominate a Keep Safe place,  please go to the website, complete the form and return before 20 February 2021.
