The Police Anti-Corruption and Abuse Reporting Service gives the public an anonymous route to report information about a police officer or member of staff, who they believe are corrupt or committing serious abuse.  

The reporting service is run by the independent charity Crimestoppers.

When people contact the service, they can choose to remain 100% anonymous, or can opt to leave their details if they are willing for the Police Service of Northern Ireland investigation team to contact them directly.    

What to report

Contact the service by calling 0800 085 0000 or via Crimestoppers website to provide information you have about a serving police officer or staff member in the UK who:  
•    Provides information or influence in return for money or favours. 
•    Uses their policing position for personal advantage - whether financial or otherwise. 
•    Crosses professional boundaries for sexual purposes. 
•    Abuses or controls their partner, or those they have a relationship with. 
•    Engages in racist, homophobic or misogynistic conduct, on or off duty, in person or online. 
The service is only for allegations of corruption or serious abuse. 
 

White text over a background of bright lights and top of police car reads: Corruption or abuse within policing?
