Helping Victims of Crime
This independent charity deals with 2000 referrals
a year from the police and local agencies. Trained staff provide
a completely confidential listening and information service. They
can assist with completion of insurance claims, safety advice,
information on the Criminal Justice System, liaise with other
agencies on the victims’ behalf, e.g. police, and help to
make personal injury claims to the Criminal Injuries Compensation
Authority.
