Victim Support gives emotional and practical help to people who have been affected by crime in Gloucestershire.

We’re an independent charity and you can contact us for support regardless of whether you’ve contacted the police, and no matter how long ago the crime took place. We’ll help you for as long as it takes to overcome the impact of crime.

Your local Victim Support team will make sure you get the information and support you need. This might be arranging a meeting for you to talk to us and receive emotional support in confidence, helping you to fill out a compensation form or get advice on how to make your home more secure, or referring you to other specialist organisations that can also help.

For help and support, call your local victim care team on 0808 281 0112. Lines are open Monday to Friday, 9am-7.30pm and Saturday 9am-5pm.

We host the Gloucestershire Hate Crime Reporting Line, where you can report hate incidents that you have experienced or witnessed. Call us on 0800 077 8460.
