Is someone in immediate danger? Is a crime taking place or has one just happened? If so, call 999 now and ask for the police. If you have a hearing or speech impairment, use our textphone service 18000 or text us on 999 if you’ve pre-registered with the emergencySMS service.
We understand that you might be scared or feel disloyal, but we're here to listen and support you in any way we can.
If you’re concerned about someone else and think they might be being abused we want to hear from you.
If you’d like to report online, you can use our online crime reporting service which is secure and confidential.
If you’d like to talk to someone, our national non-emergency telephone number is staffed 24/7. Call us on 101 and report what happened or just get some advice.
If you’d like to speak to someone in person, we can provide a safe and comfortable environment at any of our police stations.
You can report information anonymously by contacting Crimestoppers either through their website or by calling 0800 555 111.
If you need help or you think that someone you know might need help, you can contact the national charity Karma Nirvana for confidential advice and support. They also have a helpline, Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm: 0800 5999 247.
