Describe what you would do if someone was stung by a jellyfish.

7 The scene You're looking round a museum in the French capital, Paris. As you stand in front of a painting, you find yourself being jostled, people getting closer to you than they need. You realise that someone has their hand near your shoulder bag, trying to undo the fastener. Your challenge Say what you would do to protect yourself from pickpockets. Where and how would you store your cash, cards and phone? If your purse or wallet was stolen whilst you were abroad, what would you do next?

11 The scene It is a hot day in the summer by the coast. You are out with friends. Someone suggests cooling off, by jumping into the sea from the harbour wall. Your challenge It is obvious to you that some of the group don't understand the dangers involved in the activity. What do you do or say?

13 The scene You're on holiday and have gone to a popular nightclub. It's small and gets very busy. Your friend is nervous, not sure whether it's safe to stay.

List the signs you could look out for that would help in making a decision.
