If you are confronted with a threatening situation, remember that no material possession is worth endangering your life. Try and remember what the criminal looks like i.e. age, height, hair colour, clothes, voice etc. and attempt to remain calm and contact the CPU as soon as you can.

Remember to keep emergency numbers next to your phone, on a list in your purse/wallet or saved in your cell phone.

Take the time to learn a few basic self-defence techniques. See the martial arts website for information
