Crimestoppers
Crimestoppers is not the Police. Crimestoppers is the only charity directly supporting the police to detect crimes and bring offenders into the justice system.
The charity exists to allow people who have knowledge of Criminal Activity to be able to pass that information by ringing 0800 555 111 without ever having to fear the consequences of becoming involved in the enquiry. In other words, callers are never asked any personal information to identify who they are, where they live or any other contact information.
When you ring Crimestoppers you will speak to a person not a machine. The service is available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
So how safe are you when you ring Crimestoppers?
- The call will not appear on any itemised phone bills from a land line
- Call agents don't have call line identifier
- Crimestoppers never trace calls
- Call agents are forbidden from giving the police any details that may identify the caller
There are rewards too!
If the information a caller gives leads to somebody being arrested and charged, the caller can claim a cash reward of up to £1,000 and they still stay anonymous.
Languageline is available so an interpreter can join in with the conversation if required to ensure you fully understand the questions and what is on offer.
