Concerned about someone?

There are many situations where adults with needs for care and support could be subject to neglect or abuse.

If you’re worried about someone – report it!

If the person is in immediate danger, call 999. Remember to say an ‘adult with needs for care and support’ or a ‘vulnerable adult’ is involved.

Call Social Care Direct on

An officer will listen carefully to what you say, give advice and make a safeguarding referral if necessary, even if you wish to remain anonymous. The officer will take prompt action if the adult is in immediate danger.
