What to do if you have a concern about a child ....

 If you are worried about a child, that they may be harmed by situations they are in, at home or in the community, then there are things you can do:

 If the situation is dangerous for the child then ring 999 and ask for the Police.

 If the situation is not immediately dangerous for the child but you are worried that a child is not safe from harm then ring Children's Social Work and ask to discuss the situation with the duty social worker. You can do this anonymously if you wish. Ring the following numbers:
