Important- Safety Announcement

Last week, during one of my private ghost tours, a person approached the group halfway through the walk. They were concerned that someone was following them and, quite understandably, felt safer being around other people rather than being alone.

So, with that in mind, if you’re ever out and about in Sheffield city centre and you feel unsafe, and you happen to spot me leading a tour round, you’re welcome to tag along with the group.

You don’t need a ticket. You don’t need to explain yourself in front of everyone. You just need to let me know what’s happening as soon as you feel able to do so.

I’ll do what I reasonably can to help you get somewhere safe, whether that means finding a busy, public place or helping you contact someone who can assist.

Obviously, I can’t promise to deal with every situation, at the end of the day I’m only a street performer. So if you’re in immediate danger, please contact the police on 999. But sometimes, simply being around other people can make you feel a little less vulnerable.

We spend a lot of time talking about the darker side of Sheffield on these tours. But the real world can be frightening enough without having to worry about getting home safely.

So let’s look out for one another. You never know when a little kindness from a stranger might make all the difference. I do my best to ensure that my events are welcoming to all people, from all walks of life, and that everyone feels safe and welcome.

We’re Sheffield. I like to think that looking out for each other is what we do.
