Child Safe Zone
Wristbands are the simplest and most effective tool for reuniting a lost child with a parent / guardian
Wandsworth Town BID is a Child Safe Zone in the Town centre.
The Scheme supports children, parents, carers and vulnerable adults to keep them safe and get help when out and about in Wandsworth Town. For visitors we supply tough, waterproof wristbands which parents/carers can write their contact numbers/ names on. Wristbands are the simplest and most effective tool for reuniting a lost child and importantly can continuing helping the child wherever they go after visiting your town or city. These are branded with the Wandsworth Town BID logo as well as our easily recognisable symbol to follow should you get lost. The stickers (to be released soon) signal that the business is able to support and assist you by either providing you with a safe space to be in; a phone line for you to call to speak to a parent, carer, the emergency services or a support worker if you feel unsafe, are lost or are in need of any assistance.
For businesses, we provide an information pack filled with stickers to display...
...in your shop windows to let parents and carers as well as those that are lost and vulnerable know that you support are able to help. In addition these packs include details of the free training and guidance on offer to staff on how to deal with such instances. If you are a local business and would like to sign up to the scheme or if you are a visitors and would like to request a wrist band to show you are part of the scheme please email the Wandsworth Town BID team on info@wandsworth.town or speak to one of the Town Centre Ambassadors who are out and about in the Town centre.
