The University of Sheffield places a high priority on student safety through a number of initiatives, such as patrol workers offering first-response services, a control room that is open around-the-clock to monitor the campus and housing, and the "SafeZone" app for both emergency and non-urgent help. Students and employees may get 24/7 safety assurance on their phones with the Safezone app, which is available for free. If you ever require emergency, first aid, or non-urgent assistance while on campus or in our dormitories, you can use the app to notify University Security Services via your smartphone. Additionally, if an incident occurs on campus, you will receive mass notifications from the university via the app. Because SafeZone protects your privacy, it won't ever divulge your whereabouts unless you ask for help. When an alert is stopped or finished, your location is no longer shared.
