Welcome to The Scottish Centre for Personal Safety
Our charity provides empowering Personal Safety training to vulnerable individuals, organisations and businesses throughout Scotland.
Our empowerment-focussed, trauma-informed Personal Safety training is known for increasing self-confidence, lowering anxiety levels and, in some cases, increasing the self-esteem of participants.
The training takes the form of courses, workshops, classes and lessons and, as well as helping vulnerable people live more richer, fuller lives, we provide our training to businesses and organisations in the form of Personal Safety in the Workplace courses or bespoke training specifically for YOUR group.
There are many things that make our charity unique:
► We are run entirely by volunteers.
► We develop bespoke courses to help vulnerable people.
► Our self-defence techniques do not rely on strength. It doesn’t matter if you are male or female, big or small, fit or unfit, young or old. Our techniques will use your entire body against a small part of your attacker’s body.
► Most of our services are either funded or part-funded, making them more affordable to YOU.
► In the year 2018-2019, we won more national awards than any other UK charity.
► In 2020, we were honoured with The Queen’s Award for Voluntary Service (the equivalent of an MBE for voluntary organisations) for “empowering vulnerable people and saving lives through bespoke Personal Safety training since 1997”.
Please look through our website for information on the various Personal Safety courses we provide and also for tips and advice on how to stay safe. We hope to hear from you soon.
