Launched in Edinburgh in 2021, Strut Safe is a UK-wide free phone line to help those out alone at night. The initiative was born after a series of high-profile street violence incidents were reported in the city. Initially a walking service in Edinburgh, the service’s volunteers will talk to you on the phone wherever you might be – in a dark park, as well as on a bus, in a taxi or Uber. This is one of the purposes of their continued partnership with First Bus. The bus company decided to champion Strut Safe as they too felt the responsibility to keep their customers safe all the way throughout their journey.
