Target groups The scheme is for people with a learning disability over the age of 16.
People with a learning disability in Greenwich have said they can feel scared, intimidated and unsafe when out in the community and do not know where to go for help if they need it.
With funding from MOPAC (The Mayors Office for Policing and Crime) and support from Greenwich Council and the Metropoliton Police we have set up a Safe Places Scheme in Greenwich.
A Safe Place is somewhere like a shop, café or community building that will display a window sticker so people with a learning disability know they can get help in there if they need it.
