Purple Flag Halloween, Safety Initiatives in Full Force 
As Halloween weekend approaches, the city is preparing for well managed celebration under the Purple Flag status. On the night of October 26th, the streets of Cambridge will come alive with festivities, and thanks to a strong partnership between Cambridge BID, CAMBAC, and other key stakeholders, the city will have enhanced safety measures in place. 
In a collaborative effort to ensure the safety and wellbeing of all revellers, Nightlite, Street Pastors, St John Ambulance, Taxi Marshals, Open Space Guardians, Green Stripe Taxis and CCTV Support will be working together along with our incredible nighttime venues throughout the evening, providing essential support to residents and visitors alike. This robust range of services will ensure that the city's night-time economy thrives while those visiting have the best experience possible.

Email received from a grateful Mum “Could you please pass on a huge thank you to two of your volunteers who supported my daughter in Cambridge town around 2am. Your volunteers cared for her and her friend until my husband arrived.  
The support was amazing and we can’t thank them enough… to have ‘safe support’ on the streets, while young adults wish to socialise safely; is amazing!”
