TAKE Kare Safe Space, is a joint initiative between the City of Sydney, NSW Government, Salvation Army and the Thomas Kelly Youth Foundation. 

Our outreach program offers preventative interactions to reduce sexual assault, intoxicated pedestrians from walking in front of cars and buses to defusing situations that could deteriorate into violence.  We provide basic first aid, water, phone access to friends and family along with transport information to young people who may be intoxicated or affected by drugs to ensure they make it home safely.  The program is operated every Friday and Saturday night from 10pm till 4am, also covering special events such as New Year's Eve.

"I spent Friday evening with the Safe Space team and was impressed with the great work they are doing to help vulnerable youth get home safely,"  Mr Brad Hazzard (former NSW Attorney General).
