Fully trained volunteer Safety Guides take a small group of visitors around the full size, bricks and mortar indoor village. At each of a number of pre-selected town and country scenarios, the group is encouraged to spot potential dangers, sharing and building on existing knowledge and experiences. Along with some interactive role-playing they learn together how to be Safety Detectives for life.

Safety in the home, on the roads and at play, fire safety, safety on the railways and ‘stranger danger’ are all available. The children spend up to two hours identifying possible risks and dangers for themselves and learning how to reduce the chance of having an accident. They learn how to cope in an emergency, understand about consequences and the importance of making responsible choices for themselves through sharing and building on existing knowledge and experiences.

General Safety Tours last up to two hours and are suitable for 5 - 12 year olds in school or youth groups (cubs and brownies etc) or individual children in family groups with parents.

Other Safety Tours are also available at limited times for four year olds from playgroups and nurseries (Pre-School Tours) and for groups of children and adults with learning difficulties (Special Needs Tours).
