Safety planning

  • 1Keep a packed bag with essentials (ID, medication, money) somewhere safe.
  • 2Agree a code word with someone you trust to signal you need help.
  • 3Memorise key phone numbers in case you cannot take your phone.
  • 4Plan the safest times and routes to leave if you need to.
  • 5Keep important documents and a spare phone hidden if possible.
