Recognising a silent distress signal can make all the difference. 💙 (A thread) An 18-year-old woman travelling on the Tube was subjected to unwanted attention and inappropriate physical contact from a man she had encountered on her journey. As they exited the station, she spotted Callum, a Customer Service Assistant, and repeatedly used the Signal for Help by opening her palm, closing her fingers and trapping her thumb. Callum recognised the signal, immediately stepped in and separated the woman from the man, helping to bring her to safety Thanks to Callum’s vigilance and swift action, the woman was supported and the incident was reported. Enquiries are now underway to identify the man, with CCTV being reviewed. Callum was also nominated by the @BTP's Assistant Chief Constable, Charlie Doyle, for a Safeguarding Commendation. Know the signal. Know what to do. Watch Callum demonstrate the Signal for Help and learn how recognising it could help someone in distress. ✋✊ Thank you to Callum for recognising the signal and taking action. #TfLCares #CustomerService #LondonTransport

A big shout-out to Customer Service Assistant Evangelos Bozidis at Euston station. 👏 While carrying out his duties on the platform, he heard a passenger shouting for help and quickly realised their leg had become trapped in a train door. Acting immediately, he stopped the dispatched train and safely released the passenger using the station's safety equipment. Thanks to his quick thinking and decisive action, a potentially serious situation was brought to a safe conclusion. Well done, Evangelos, and thank you for helping keep our customers safe. 💙 #TfLCares #CustomerService #LondonTransport
