How safe is England?

England generally is a safe country, but like anywhere has dodgy areas. it's best to stay in lit up areas at night and to be vigilant on nights out in cities. When in large cities, phone and petty thefts can happen, so be sure to stay aware of your surroundings and hold on to your belongings (look out for people on bikes on the pavements).

There are some areas which are lovely and definitely worth seeing but some areas you should definitely avoid due too gang crime, drugs and violence. Sadly knife crime is rising in England but it’s definitely not all bad. We have some of the most beautiful country side and views. Victorian style villages and so much more too offer!
