Adult Protection Referrals Received by Social Work Services Approx 2800

Borrowing? or Stealing?

Helping out? or Cashing in?

A Fall? or Push?

Friends? or Freeloaders?

Seen Something? Say Something “If you though a child was at risk of harm, you’d do something about it. It should be no different for an adult. If your instinct tells you something isn’t right, don’t keep it to yourself. With one anonymous phone call to your local council, the situation you’re worried about will be checked out and support given, if needed. It may be nothing, but there’s no harm in being sure.”
