Empower yourself - become an active bystander

Join us for our Active Bystander Workshop, delivered by Police Scotland, and learn the skills to safely and confidently intervene in situations where someone might need help.

In today's world, we all have the potential to play a role in stopping harm before it escalates. But knowing how to respond safely can be challenging.

This workshop will give you the tools to:

  • Recognise situations that require intervention
  • Assess risk and decide on appropriate actions
  • Intervene safely to de-escalate or prevent harm
  • Empower others in your community by setting a positive example

The workshops will take place on Wednesday 27 November at Merchiston campus and Wednesday 4 December at Craiglockhart campus. You can sign up for free via My Future:
