Think Local Act Personal

When a concern is raised that a vulnerable adult may be a victim of abuse or neglect. This concern may be caused by what someone has said, or what has been seen. Anyone can raise an alert, and to do so you should contact the adults' services department of the local council. If you believe a crime has been committed, you should talk to the police about it.
