Safety in the Community – South Brisbane

Here are some safety tips from the Brisbane City Council website that you may find useful when you’re out and about or walking home after dark.

Be Aware

Stay alert to your surroundings at all times.
Remove your headphones and be aware of our surroundings.

Be Smart

Choose safe routes in well-lit, populated areas with lots of other people around.

Trust your Instincts

If you feel unsafe, uncomfortable or feel something just isn’t right, get out of the situation straight away.

Be Prepared

Before you head out, plan how you will get there and how you will get back.

Identify safe locations along the route such as a friend’s house, local shop or café.

If you would like a bit of extra support walking home after dark you can call Concierge on 0419 538 293 and let them know your travel route and expected arrival time.

Concierge will look out for your arrival and follow up with a phone call if you don’t arrive home at the expected time.

Concierge can also provide escorts within the building. Please see the Concierge desk or call Concierge on the intercom if you require assistance.

If you have any questions please contact Common Ground Queensland.
