Hints & tips Getting home safely

|
 The key to getting home safely is planning ahead. Think about how you and your friends will get home at the start of your night out. If you're going as a group and taking a car then decide beforehand who's going to be Des - the designated non-drinking driver. You could all buy non-alcoholic drinks for him or her, and pay for the petrol too. If you aren't taking a car, make sure you know how you're getting home - have phone numbers for reliable (licensed) taxi firms to hand or find out about public transport. And put aside some cash - even if it means sticking it in your shoe - so you don't spend it. If you have to walk home, don't walk through unlit or unsafe areas and avoid walking on your own. Don't let your friends wander off by themselves either, especially if they're drunk. |
