Victim Support (Supportline)

If you have been affected by crime, you can talk in confidence to trained staff who explain your rights and options and the further support available. You can also use the live chat.

Good to know

The call is free, and you can stay anonymous if you prefer. You can dial 141 first to hide your number, though that does not work on some mobile networks. Support is only for people in England and Wales.

We list this organization because it is a national service for the need on this page. We’re not affiliated with it, and we don’t speak for it. Last checked October 3, 2026: we opened its own site and confirmed this link and number. We don’t call the lines, and hours can change — their site has the latest.

Heavy moment? Call Samaritans on 116 123 — or we’re here.
