Royal Victoria Place is a child safe shopping centre and as part of our family facilities, we offer a hotline number to assist parents and guardians in finding children who have been separated from them whilst out shopping.
Pick up you free wristbands in centre!
When you visit Royal Victoria Place, you will be able to obtain free wristbands for your children from the Concierge desk located on level 2 opposite Bhs. A contact telephone number should be written on the wristband and in the event of your child being lost, you will be contacted quickly and reunited.
