Plan Ahead Before Heading Out<\/b><\/h3><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Before you head out for the night, take a moment to plan everything out as well as you can. Ask yourself these important questions:<\/span><\/p><ul><li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><b>Where am I going?<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> Know the routes you\u2019ll be taking, and have a backup plan in case the party gets too crowded or isn\u2019t what you expected. Planning out your partying destinations is the first step towards ensuring a safe New Year\u2019s Eve experience.<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><b>Who am I with?<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> Stick with people you trust! It\u2019s always safer (and more fun) to celebrate with friends or family who\u2019ve got your back. Make sure your phone is charged to maintain coordination.<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><b>How will I get home?<\/b> <span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Don\u2019t wait until midnight to figure out your transport. Whether it\u2019s a taxi, a designated driver, or public transport, knowing how you\u2019ll get home is key to staying safe on New Year\u2019s Eve.<\/span><\/li><\/ul><h3><b>2. Be Smart About Alcohol<\/b><\/h3><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Alcohol is a big part of New Year\u2019s Eve celebrations in the UK, but drinking responsibly is one of the most important New Year\u2019s Eve safety measures. Here\u2019s how to enjoy the drinks without overdoing it:<\/span><\/p><ul><li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><b>Pace yourself:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> Drink slowly and alternate with water or soft drinks. Your future self will thank you.<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><b>Eat before you drink:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> A hearty meal can help slow alcohol absorption and keep you energised for the night. No reason to fear the carbs on this occasion!<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><b>Watch your drink:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> Never leave your drink unattended or accept drinks from strangers. Sadly, drink spiking does happen, so staying vigilant is a must.<\/span><\/li><\/ul><p><b>Recommended Reading: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Learn <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.get-licensed.co.uk\/safety-hub\/safety-measures-to-prevent-drink-spiking\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">essential measures to prevent drink spiking<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> on your nights out.<\/span><\/p><h3><b>3.

While crowds can be part of the fun, they also pose some risks.<\/span><\/p><ul><li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><b>Keep your belongings secure:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> Pickpockets are more active in crowded areas. Use a zipped bag or keep your valuables in the front pocket where you can keep a closer check on them.<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><b>Know your exits:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> Familiarise yourself with the layout of the venue so you can leave quickly if you need to.<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><b>Stay close to your group:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> It\u2019s easy to lose people in large crowds, so agree on a meeting point in case you get separated.<\/span><\/li><\/ul><p><b>Pro tip:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> Learn smart tips on <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.get-licensed.co.uk\/safety-hub\/prevent-pickpocketing-in-urban-areas\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">how to prevent pickpocketing<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> in busy areas all year around.<\/span><\/p><h3><b>4.
