STUDENT SAFETY Police Scotland launch a campaign to provide advice to students across Scotland on keeping safe over term time. This month, more than 465,000 students will start their studies in Scotland. Many may find it a challenge to adapt to the lifestyle changes of a new environment and new circumstances whilst making new friends, and Police Scotland will help students avoid becoming victims of crime with the launch of a new student safety campaign. Police Scotland’s Keep Safe campaign launches on Thursday 25 September 2014 after the run of Freshers’ Weeks – the traditional week of fun for new students – and will provide information and advice to students aged 16-25 years on how to stay safe and reduce the number of victims of crime within this target group. The key messages of the campaign are: • Home Safe – safety and security both at home and on campus • Property Safe – tips on keeping your valuables secure • Party Safe – keep yourself safe while socialising • Substance Abuse – health implications and legal repercussions • Online Safety – guide to avoiding online abuse and cyber bullying • Identity Safety – how to protect yourself from identity theft and online scams
