Protecting someone from harm

It's everyone's responsibility to support and protect people at risk of harm!

If you are worried about a child or an adult and think they may be at risk of harm, abuse or neglect - support, advice and guidance is available. 

In an emergency situation outside our social work office hours, please call (Freephone) 0800 731 6969.
