Walk Away
Pick up line didn't land? Nevermind. Be respectful of their answer. Say you understand and walk away.
Going out should be about having fun, but sometimes someone can say the wrong thing, spill a drink or knock into someone else. Things can easily get heated in the moment that can lead to situations that are unsafe.
Walk Away is here to help us recognise when things might be starting to get out of hand, and help us to understand how best to deal with it. Visit wewalkaway.uk for more information.
Your mate squaring up?
You know your mates best, if they're staring, shouting or squaring up, it's a sure sign they need to walk away.
We're often not our best selves when we're drunk. A quick apology on behalf of a friend can go a long way to helping clear up a misunderstanding before things kick off.
If things have already escalated, and you feel safe to do so, step in and make eye contact with your mate, it will be easier to talk them down.
"What're you looking at?" Nobody likes to be stared at. But when you've had a bit to drink we can often glaze over and not pay attention. If someone's staring at you, just ignore it and walk away.
