Coventry Safe Spaces | Child Friendly Coventry

Safety, particularly when walking and traveling, emerged as a top concern in Coventry One Big Voice survey responses in both primary and secondary schools. To address this, Child Friendly Coventry have collaborated with partners to establish a number Safe Spaces throughout the city.

Venues such as Family Hubs, libraries, CV life venues, McDonalds, Coventry University, and youth organisations have joined this initiative, undergoing training provided by Child Friendly Cov and West Midlands Police to ensure they meet safety standards.

Safe Spaces will be identified by window stickers and equipped with amenities like power banks, chargers, first aid kits, and informational leaflets. They've also partnered with Langar Aid and Tesco to provide food and hygiene packs.

Check out the map below for all the venues who have signed up to the Safe Spaces Initiative. Please check individual venues for opening times.
