Report rape, sexual assault and other sexual offences
This reporting service is currently offline
Our online reporting service for rape, sexual assault and other sexual offences is temporarily offline.
We're working to get it back online again as soon as possible.
In the meantime, if you need to speak to someone:
In an emergency
Call 999 if:
- you or someone else is in danger right now
- a serious crime is happening now or has just happened
If you have a speech or hearing impairment
If you have a speech or hearing impairment, use our textphone service 18000.
Or text us on 999 if you've pre-registered with the emergencySMS service.
If you're in danger but you can't talk on the phone
Call 999 and follow these instructions:
If you're using a mobile
Press 55 when prompted and your call will be transferred to the police.
Pressing 55 only works on mobiles and doesn't allow us to track your location.
If you don't press 55 your call will be ended.
If you're on a landline
If you don't speak and the operator can only hear background noises they'll transfer your call to the police.
If you replace the handset the landline may remain connected for 45 seconds, in case you pick up again.
Calling 999 from a landline automatically passes your location to the police.
If it's not an emergency
Call 101.
If you're deaf or hard of hearing, use our textphone service 18001 101.
If you don't want to call us and want help from someone else
