Victim Support
Cumberland
Westmorland and Furness
We are an independent charity providing support to those affected by crime.
Victim Support can support victims of any crime and those who have been affected by crime.
Our services are free and available to everyone, whether or not the crime has been reported and regardless of when it happened.
We are not part of the police, the courts or any other criminal justice agency. The service we provide is free and confidential.
We can offer:
• someone to talk to in confidence
• information on police and court procedures
• help in dealing with other organisations
• information about compensation and insurance
• information on other sources of help
Victims can self-refer or can be referred by an outside agency with their explicit consent.
