Role of the Police

We are here to protect, help and support anybody who is suffering domestic abuse. If we are called out to a domestic abuse incident we will protect, help and support victims.

We can help protect you and your family from abuse.

We guarantee to:

  • Fully investigate any incident that has occurred and take action against the perpetrator, if there is sufficient evidence.
  • Protect you and your children from immediate or further harm.
  • Provide information in relation to criminal proceedings and police procedure.
  • Provide information on local domestic abuse support agencies that can give emotional and practical assistance.

We have dedicated Domestic Abuse Officers in your local area. Our officers are here to provide support and information about police procedure and legal proceedings.
