Instrument approaches for practice

Hi guys,

Wondered if you could help me out with clarifying something. I've researched it but am struggling to find a definitive answer.

If one, as an instrument rated pilot, wishes to practice some instrument approaches somewhere, MUST he have a safety pilot / observer?

My memory is telling me that if its VMC VFR then yes, but is there a way round this, such as asking the unit to change to IFR for approaches, does that then change things?

Many thanks,

XiRho
