Street Rangers
On the ground every morning — deep-cleaning pavements, removing graffiti and clearing spillages so the city always looks its best. If you spot something that needs attention, tell us and the Rangers will get to it.
City Centre & Safety
Looked after, every day
A city centre you can enjoy with confidence — kept clean by our Street Rangers and kept safe by the Safer Wakefield partnership. City-centre crime is at a four-year low.
Safer Wakefield
Our Business Crime Reduction Partnership links 90+ businesses, West Yorkshire Police and the city-centre CCTV control room through digital radios and a real-time alert app — a network that's helped push crime to its lowest level in four years.
Business? Join Safer Wakefield →Ask for Angela
If you're on a night out and feel unsafe, uncomfortable or threatened — in any participating venue — go to the bar and ask for Angela. Staff are trained to recognise the codeword and will discreetly help you out of the situation, no questions asked.
Look for the orange "I am Ask for Angela trained" badge in venues across the city centre — it means staff there know exactly how to help.
