Practical personal safety guidance designed to support women attending mosque activities, offering clear advice on awareness, preparation, and decision-making to help reduce risk and promote confidence.
This resource provides clear, practical safety advice to support women who walk to and from mosques, particularly during early morning, evening, or high-attendance prayer times. The guidance focuses on situational awareness, personal safety, communication, and decision-making to help reduce risk while travelling to places of worship.
The tips are designed to be proportionate, realistic, and easy to follow, supporting women in feeling more confident and prepared while maintaining independence and routine participation in mosque and community life.
We provide personalised support that recognises the unique circumstances of each mosque and community. Our work is carried out with sensitivity, respect, and an understanding of local contexts, ensuring guidance is practical, proportionate, and appropriate.
We work closely with trustees, leaders, and volunteers to support informed decision-making, strengthen confidence, and promote safer, more welcoming environments for worship and community activity.
Our support extends beyond initial advice or training. We provide follow-up guidance, clarification, and signposting to help mosques apply learning effectively and maintain good security practices over time.
This ongoing support helps ensure confidence, consistency, and reassurance for mosque leadership and volunteers.
Our work is rooted in the needs of local communities. We take a respectful, inclusive approach that recognises the role of mosques as open, welcoming spaces. All guidance and support are shaped around community wellbeing, reassurance, and practical outcomes.
