Hollie Guard App - Safeguarding people where it matters

To anyone with children old enough to have a mobile phone, or for anyone concerned about their safety, download the Hollie Gard App. If you are walking home late or alone, switch it on and you can track them. If someone approaches and they may feel unsafe they can shake their phone. This sets off an alarm from the phone and also messages to alert you. Alternatively, there is a stealth mode that raises an alert discreetly. 

The app was designed by the Hollie Gazzard Trust, set up after 20-year-old Hollie Gazard was murdered by her ex partner, and is designed to help if someone feels unsafe.

If the user feels concerned they can shake their phone and alert key contacts. The app will start recording audio and visual information which will be saved and sent to emergency contacts, so that they can call emergency services on the users behalf if required. A repeated shake by the user will initiate a flashing light and high pitched audio alert.
