Safe Spaces Locations

If you are experiencing domestic abuse, it can be isolating and difficult to find support or think about your options. That’s why we created Safe Spaces.

UK SAYS NO MORE is working with pharmacies, banks and selected jobcentres across the UK to provide Safe Spaces in their consultation rooms for people experiencing domestic abuse.

Organisations providing Safe Spaces include; Boots, Morrisons pharmacies, Superdrug pharmacies, independent pharmacies, HSBC, TSB, The Co-operative Bank and selected Metro Banks. You can use a safe space in whichever way works for you. They provide a safe and discreet way to reach out to friends and family, and contact specialist support services. Safe Spaces are open and ready for you to use.

How to access a Safe Space

  • Walk into any participating safe space in the UK
  • Ask a member of staff at the counter to use their safe space
  • You will be shown to the Safe Space which will be a private room
  • Once inside you can use the safe space in whichever way works for you. They provide a safe and discreet way to reach out to friends and family, contact specialist support services and start your journey to recovery.
