Module 1 - Escape The Street Be Aware of what's going on around you- When walking down the street, do you know if you're being followed? Whilst out running or walking are you alone and wearing headphones, these will really restrict your awareness. Whilst out walking, face oncoming traffic. Keep your hands out of your pockets so that they are ready to use if you are grabbed. Walk with Confidence, look like you know what you're doing and where you're going, even if you don't. Keep your head and eyes up. Have you noticed a vehicle drive by you numerous times or is there a person sitting outside your work or School. Adults do not need to ask children for help. There's safety in numbers. Do not walk in dark Alleys / Fields to take a short cut. Always let people know where you are and what time you plan to be somewhere. Trust you instincts, if you see something strange going on, avoid it and Report it. If you jog or walk alone don't wear headphones. Don't answer questions to Strangers on the phone giving information that you're alone. Make eye contact with people in a way they know that you've seen them (a would-be criminal does not want to be identified so is less likely to strike). Screaming works as someone may come to your aid, if nothing else, at least you are attracting attention to yourself. Don't Hitchhike. Be careful whilst using ATM's at night. If you wear a purse with a shoulder strap be prepared to let it go if it's snatched, you may get hurt if you're dragged along with it. (do you really have to carry such a Purse?) WWW.FIGHTWIZE.COM
