This service is for people who have been affected by crime, whether directly, as a family member or as a community member.

For example, a minority ethnic adult who becomes isolated at home because a crime was committed directly against them or a family member or because crime is happening in their local area and this makes them reluctant to go out.

It does not matter what the crime is, where and when it took place, how the person was affected or whether or not it has been reported.

The service offers:

• one-to-one advice and information appointments
• workshops on topics such as:
  • victims’ rights
  • accessing support
  • issues arising because of the impact of crime
• MEVSS Information Station – an outreach session involving an advice workshop and a wellbeing activity

We are also a Third Party Reporting Centre, meaning that victims and witnesses of crime can report a crime through us rather than directly to the police. We can identify whether there are any Third Party Reporting Centres in a person’s local area if they would prefer.
