SafeWalk will walk with you side-by-side – students, staff, visitors, or anyone else at George Brown College. We walk in pairs, and go up to 2 kilometres both on-campus and off-campus.
We walk from all campuses and all George Brown College buildings (we see you, too, Theatre School!) We have desks at St James (200 King St E), Hospitality Building (300 Adelaide St E), Casa Loma (160 Kendal Ave.), and Waterfront (51 Dockside Dr.) Our desks are normally located where the welcome desks are located – look for our yellow banner and yellow vests.
We still walk from the Daniels WF building, but we won’t have a desk there this year. You can call, text, or WhatsApp us at 1-888-210-7233 during our open hours to request one.
If you are on-campus but not near one of our desks, you can call, text, or WhatsApp us at 1-888-210-7233 during open hours to get a walk. You can also book a walk in-advance at: https://forms.gle/uVKszghDtdEstQnr5 .
The service is available Monday to Friday starting at 6:45 p.m. We don’t operate during the winter break, spring break (late April, early May) and summer break (late August, early September), and any other days the college is closed.
NOTE: If you are on the Toronto Metropolitan University campus, contact TMU Security (24 hours a day, 7 days a week) at 416-979-5040 (internal phones 55040), or email them at walksafe@ryerson.ca.
SafeWalk staff have extensive training in First Aid, CPR, AED, consent, sexual assault awareness, how to respond to a sexual violence disclosure on campus, Naloxone administration, and Understanding and Managing Aggressive Behaviour (UMAB).
SafeWalk staff also promote safety awareness. SafeWalk is a pro-active safety measure that improves campus life by creating a safer environment for all. We exist to help reduce the chances of something happening on your walk in the city – we operate on the idea that there is safety in numbers.
Staff also conduct nightly safety audits of the campuses, helping to ensure safer spaces for all.
Can’t meet or find us? We’ll go to you. Call, text, or WhatsApp us at 1-888-210-7233 between 6:45 p.m. and 10:30 p.m. to have a SafeWalk team meet you anywhere on campus. You can also book a walk online by Clicking Here.
