Oxford is generally a safe place to live and work but isolated incidents do occur. If you have been the victim of a crime, or witness one, report it immediately to the police by calling 999. If a non-emergency incident takes place on University of Oxford property or land (including any colleges) you should report it to the University’s Security Services via this form. 

Please also familiarise yourself with the University’s guidance on personal safety which contains advice on sensible precautions to bear in mind whilst out in Oxford, particularly when you are on your own.
