St Helens People’s Choice have a “Safer in Town” card to assist people with learning disabilities in the local area. The initiative is part of the ‘Safer in Town’ scheme with the St Helens Hate Crime Partnership to empower people with learning difficulties to become more independent and stand up for their rights.

The card, or key ring, will contain useful telephone numbers in case of an accident, injury or crime and will run in association with the ‘Safer in Town’ sticker to be displayed in shop windows throughout St Helens. So far over 60 shops, cafes and other premises have signed up to the scheme. DASH is proud to be part of the scheme.

Cards will be available from the People’s Choice centre on the 2nd Floor of Tontine House, Church Street, St Helens. If you would like more information please contact John Horan from People’s Choice team on:
