We’re enabling safer communities with Leeds Station’s new Safe Space initiative.

By integrating WalkSafe into the initiative, passengers can access personal safety tools for added reassurance, whether they’re in the station or travelling across the city.

 

The app enables users to share their journey or ETA with friends and family, report local safety concerns, and, through our partnership with Leeds City Council, access hundreds of safety-trained venues across Leeds. 📲

The need for initiatives like this is clear. Data from Women Friendly Leeds found that 97% of women believe being a woman affects their personal safety, while 43% have experienced harassment or assault while using public transport.

A huge thank you to all of our partners for their ongoing commitment to improving public safety and passenger wellbeing.
