Theft image

Be vigilant about the possibility of theft from unattended personal property at all times.

Crime Prevention

Students and staff are reminded of the University's "Stay Safe Stay Secure" booklet which gives advice on personal safety.

Personal Safety

Violent and sexual attacks on students are thankfully rare and, statistically, the chances of being attacked are low. However, a few attacks on students do occur every year, so it is important to be aware of this, and to take sensible precautions. Take a few minutes to read this safety advice, much of which you will probably already be aware. If the unthinkable does happen, then at least you will be prepared as to what you can do to help yourself.

Another useful website is the Suzy Lamplugh website, which you will no doubt have heard of. In addition to our own crime prevention web page, this site covers some additional areas which caters not only for students studying at Leeds University but also includes a wide range of information on personal safety for our staff members also.
