The Safer Strangers, Safer Buildings campaign will help children to identify adults who are safe to approach when they are lost and the kinds of buildings where they can get help.
The project, which has been piloted in the North West of England, is supported by the Suzy Lamplugh Trust, Kidscape and the Children's Safety Education Foundation.
Liam McGurrin, a trustee of the Children's Safety Education Foundation, said: "It will help young people to pick out responsible people like police, traffic wardens, bank counter staff and checkout assistants.
"It will also help children to spot safer buildings such as banks, post offices, supermarkets, shops, libraries, medical centres and other community facilities."
