Recognising Vulnerability & Early Warning Signs
Notice What Is Happening Around You
People may communicate distress indirectly or be unable to explain it clearly.
Behaviour+
Fearfulness, sudden distress, withdrawal, confusion, repeated attempts to get away or looking to staff for help may require attention.
Control+
Another person may be monitoring their phone, speaking for them, preventing them leaving or isolating them.
Intoxication+
Unexpected or severe intoxication can increase vulnerability and may also indicate a medical emergency.
Harassment+
Unwanted following, touching, sexual comments, threats or persistent attention should not be dismissed as normal nightlife behaviour.
