Have a Happy New Year but Get Home Safe

As 2012 approaches no doubt many of you will be planning to head out and spend time with friends and family to see in the New Year.

As you make your plans, please think about where you will be going, who you will be with and most importantly, how you intend to get home.

New Years Eve can be one of the busiest nights of the year when thousands of people will be out and about. If you do not plan your journey home and leave arrangements to chance, it could be a very bad ending to a great night out.

When you are out please drink responsibly and don’t separate from your friends. Isolated people can be more vulnerable, especially when they have consumed alcohol and they can easily become the victim of anti-social behaviour or crime.

Your Police Service want you to be safe and enjoy the vibrant night-time economy and the fantastic range of venues for all to enjoy.

When you are out remember to:


  • plan your journey home in advance

  • drink responsibly

  • don’t walk through areas you are unsure of

  • stay in well-lit areas

  • stick with your friends

  • never accept a drink from someone you don’t know

  • always have enough money to get yourself home.

Have a great New Year, plan early and most importantly 'Get Home Safe'.
