Programme in figures<\/h4>\n

During almost four months of their work, City Helpers undertook over 31,000 actions<\/strong>. As a part of these actions, they provided information to 24,375 persons and gave various kinds of help to 1,958 persons. They carried out 1,827 successful interventions addressing the disturbance of public order, including 197 in co-operation with the City Guard, and noticed 2,950 cases of breaking the law in the Old Town Cultural Park, which included mainly putting up advertisements in the form of pavement swing signs and loud music from bars. CHs were approached by 9,026 persons seeking information. The above data come from the application used by CHs for the weekly reporting of activities.<\/p>\n

Giving information and help<\/h4>\n

Tourists reacted very positively to help offered by City Helpers. Krakow\u2019s residents were also clearly interested in their work. City Helpers most often provided tourist information<\/strong>. Guests asked mainly about Krak\u00f3w\u2019s best-known attractions. Tourists and inhabitants very often asked questions about cultural events<\/strong> being held in the city, particularly open-air events: festivals, concerts and summer cinema. People visiting Krak\u00f3w also asked about dining places that serve regional dishes. Many questions concerned the location and functioning of shops<\/strong> and currency exchange offices<\/strong>, public transportation<\/strong> and the network of connections in Krak\u00f3w. At the beginning of the programme, guests from Ukraine<\/strong> had many questions, mainly about points issuing PESEL numbers and help centres. On hottest days, tourists sought squares<\/strong>, swimming pools and water areas<\/strong> in the neighbourhood. CHs often provided first aid<\/strong> in the case of injuries; thanks to the Ratuj \u017bycie [Save Life] foundation, they could also make use of a defibrillator<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Disorderly conduct and drinking alcohol in public places<\/h4>\n

Another task of City Helpers was to pay attention to cases of unacceptable behaviour, such as making raucous noise or drinking alcohol in a public place. They undertook almost 2,000 interventions in this respect. These interventions concerned mainly weekend evenings and were usually required no more than an admonition. In a few hundred cases, they had to ask the City Guard for support. City Helpers also tried to ensure compliance with the rules of the Cultural Park. They controlled the number and arrangement of advertisements in the form of pavement swing signs in the Old Town and monitored prohibited activities, such as trading on the street without permission.<\/p>\n

The CHs\u2019 work was supported by leaflets and posters<\/strong> created for the needs of the campaign that contained information about the rules applicable in the city and were also popular among entrepreneurs operating in the Old Town, particularly accommodation and dining facilities.<\/p>\n

Krak\u00f3w\u2019s Sustainable Tourism Policy for the years 2021\u20132028 and #RespectKrakow<\/h4>\n

The City Helpers 2022 programme was carried out in Krak\u00f3w for the second time. The project fits into recommendations of Krak\u00f3w\u2019s Sustainable Tourism Policy for the years 2021\u20132028 and is a part of the broader campaign #RespectKrakow undertaken by the city in 2019 to draw tourists\u2019 attention to the fact that Krak\u00f3w is not just a great place to visit but is also home to hundreds of thousands of people.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
