Sheffield 'safe square' returns to help Christmas revellers

Those on nights out in Sheffield city centre can get help from the service over the festive period.

A “lifesaving” project aiming to keep revellers safe in Sheffield has returned to the city for the festive period.

People seeking help can stop at gazebos in Barker’s Pool to gain medical assistance, charge their phones for free and get support in booking taxis. Funding ran out in October and it was forced to close, but it had since received a short-term grant from the South Yorkshire Violence Reduction Unit to allow it to reopen over Christmas.Sheffield City Council's Douglas Johnson, speaker for the Green group, said the party would campaign for further funding to allow it to continue permanently.
