Help for Adults
If you are a victim or witness of crime, our caseworkers offer free, confidential and independent advice and tailored support to meet your needs.
Types of support
-
Emotional support
Caseworkers are trained to listen, empathise and recognise the emotional impact that crime can have on you.
-
Mental health support
We work alongside a mental health nurse who can help support around mental wellbeing.

Online platform for digital counselling
We have a digital platform called Qwell which is accessible for anyone aged 18 and over who have been affected by domestic abuse or sexual offences. The support is anonymous and allows you to have online contact with a counsellor about how it has impacted you.

Specialist support
We will help you find the appropriate support and make direct referrals.
-
Crime prevention
We work with a specialist security service who can provide crime prevention and safety measures for added support.

Restorative Justice
Restorative Justice is a voluntary process which offers you the opportunity to potentially communicate with the offender to address any harm caused.

Advocacy
We can contact services on your behalf to help (for example support from your local housing).
