New service to support victims of crime

March 22nd, 2016 Martin Walker News 0 comments 1885

Victims of crime are to benefit from an improved advice and support service from Friday 1st April.

Safe in Tees Valley were appointed to deliver the new Victim Care and Advice Service (VCAS) after a competitive tendering process held by Cleveland Police and Crime Commissioner (PCC) Barry Coppinger and Durham Police and Crime Commissioner Ron Hogg.

The new Victim Care and Advice Service (VCAS) will provide a free, independent and confidential service to help victims cope with the immediate impact of crime and subsequently make a full recovery.

The service can be accessed at any point in the journey to recovery. For many this will be in the immediate aftermath of the crime being committed but, for some, the full impact may not be evident until later.

Family and friends play a vital role in addressing the emotional and practical impact of crime and if needed they too can obtain advice or additional assistance.

Mr Hogg said: “Ensuring victims of crime receive the highest possible service is at the heart of my Police and Crime Plan.

“The new service will focus on an individual’s need, and help them cope during a traumatic time in the lives of many victims.”

John Bentley, chief executive of Safe in Tees Valley, said: “The Victim Care and Advice Service will provide emotional and practical support for everyone who needs help to cope and recover from the impact of being a victim of crime.

“We will particularly seek to support those who are vulnerable, intimidated or have been a repeat victim. We aim to work in partnership with many agencies to broaden the offer of support available and provide the best possible care for victims.”

If you would like advice or support please contact the Victim Care and Advice Service from Friday 1st April on: tel 0303 0401 099, email [email protected] or at www.victimcareandadviceservice.uk
