We will deal sensitively and confidentially with any information you give us and any we receive from a third party, such as a doctor or social worker, about you and your family. This information is protected under the Data Protection Act and we will only disclose it if you give us permission to do so. The only exception to this is when the law requires us to report something to social services, for example to protect a child or vulnerable adult from harm, or to the police to prevent a crime.
If you need extra support, we can put you in touch with services that can help. These may include victim or witness support, counselling or mediation. We can also help you access support if you have been the victim of incidents such as domestic abuse or hate crime. We will also work with perpetrators to help manage their behaviour.
