If you are a health professional such as a GP or a carer, it is your duty to report any instance where you observe someone being abused or where you suspect someone is being abused or when someone tells you they are being abused.

Remember that there are many different types of abuse.

If you have observed abuse by an individual or an institution, it is very possible that other people are also affected.

Reporting Abuse

You may know the person that is carrying out abuse and are worried about reporting them. You can report abuse to us in the strictest confidence and your identity can be kept private.
