Leaving a window open, walking home talking to your best mate on your mobile, taking an unlicensed taxi are all small and sometimes unconscious mistakes we all make.
Don't risk being a victim of crime in your community.
Simple things you can do:
Plan how your going to get to and from a venue
Cover your drink or Ask for a Spikey behind the bar
Remember to check your windows and doors are closed and locked
Do a safety check of your student house, and consult your landlord if you are concerned
Only use licensed taxis
Use the RUSU Nightbus if your travelling home from campus
Look out for yourself and for your fellow students around you, warn them if you are worried about their safety
