Safety first for families

at Freeport Fleetwood

Your children's safety is very important to us. We have joined the national Child Safe Initiative, Child Safe Zones, to help both parents and children become reunited as quickly as possible.

Families are encouraged to register with Child Safe Zones. For more information, pick up a leaflet at Freeport Fleetwood or visit the website: www.childsafezones.co.uk.

Wristbands

On entering the centre a wristband can be collected from Sharkees. The wristband is bright, waterproof and tough. It allows a parent/guardian to write a mobile number inside the band, so if a child is lost they can quickly become reunited.

Look out for the window stickers

Brightly coloured window stickers are displayed in every store window which help provide shoppers with simple safety information and contact details should a child get lost. The emergency number displayed on the sticker puts worried parents or lost children directly in touch with the security team.

If you lose a child

Should you lose a child at Freeport Fleetwood, the advice is simple:

• Stay close to where you last saw them
• Look for the nearest sticker displayed on shop windows and doors.
• Ring the number displayed.
• Speak directly to the security team who will help you.

Child Safe Zones initiative

This intiative is designed to help:

• Parents or guardians who lose a child.
• Anyone finding a lost, injured or worried child.
• A young child, who can look for the nearest orange balloon window sticker and ask a member of staff for help.
• An older child or teenager who needs help.
