Is someone crossing your line of what's right or wrong?

Crimestoppers is the independent charity operating the freephone 0800 555 111 helping to prevent and solve crimes. The scheme allows you to give information about crimes that affect you and your local community. Because they are anonymous, meaning they don't want your name or address, no one will ever know you made the call. Your calls are not traced and you will never have to give a statement or go to court.

With your help, Crimestoppers have been successfully helping to make communities safer for 15 years and our promise of anonymity has never been broken.

If you have information about crime that you want to share call Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
