In Pictures: Queen’s launches free late-night shuttle service for students
Queen’s University Belfast has officially launched the 'Get Home Safe' initiative - the first of two new late-night transport pilots - as part of the University’s ongoing commitment to student safety.
The ‘Get Home Safe’ initiative, operated in partnership with SOS Bus NI services, will run until 30 April and offers Queen’s students a safe and reliable way to travel home from the city centre.
The service will pick up students from two key city centre locations, The Kremlin and The Limelight, two nights per week (Wednesdays and Thursdays), between 12.00am and 2.00am, transporting students safely to the Holyland area.
This initiative builds on Queen’s existing student safety measures, including the Queen’s University Belfast - PSNI drink check initiative and a series of campus safety events designed to promote a safe and welcoming campus community for students.







This new initiative complements the range of student safety projects already in place for students at Queen’s, including:
- our drink check initiative, which is delivered in partnership by Queen’s and the PSNI to help prevent drink spiking in bars and clubs across Belfast;
- our Personal Security Pocket Guide for students and staff;
- our Campus Safety Events series, which has been engaging with students and staff to highlight the wide range of support and information we offer on personal security;
- and our zero tolerance policy on racism, all hate crime, bullying, harassment, sexual misconduct and other forms of discrimination and abuse.
