S.A.F.E. is a Kenyan NGO and UK charity that uses street theatre, films and community programmes to educate, inspire and deliver social change on a range of issues, including:

Nick Reding founded S.A.F.E. in 2001 after helping to establish an HIV/ AIDS clinic in Mombasa.

- We featured in the Oscar-winning film The Constant Gardener and the ITV documentary Corrie Goes to Kenya

- Our first feature film Ndoto Za Elibidi - about HIV prevention and sexual violence - has won ten international awards.

- Our second film, Ni Sisi - about peace and Kenyan identity - was released in February 2013 to international acclaim.

- In 2009 we won The STARS Foundation's Rising Star Award for excellence and impact in HIV/AIDS education
