Communities encouraged to keep safe by using our unique service

We have launched a campaign in Cardiff to highlight our charity’s unique service of guaranteeing anonymity to everyone who contacts us to pass on information about crime. 

Although Cardiff is a safe place to live, we have seen a 13% increase in reports involving South Wales over a five-year period. 
 
Crimestoppers which is independent of the police, offers an alternative when it comes to reporting crime and since the late 1980s when we started, we have always kept our guarantee of anonymity. 

Our charity knows that speaking up about crime can be a worry, especially if it involves criminality that’s close to home. Information given 100% anonymously to Crimestoppers, or Fearless our youth service, can be crucial in helping to make communities safer. Our service breaks down barriers that prevent people from speaking up. 
 
Information received anonymously is passed on to law enforcement and can help to save lives by stopping domestic abuse, preventing serious organised crime and supporting investigators to solve cases from murder and rape to child abuse. 
 
Information can be given 100% anonymously to us in over 150 different languages, 365 days of the year, 24/7, by calling our UK-based Contact Centre on 0800 555 111, or by completing a safe and secure online form anonymously or via Fearless.org for young people.

“Crimestoppers and Fearless our charity’s youth service, are here for people who for whatever reason, feel unable to speak directly to the police. This may be because they fear retribution or because those involved are too close to home.
 
“People sometimes know something about a crime, or have a suspicion, whether that is they think a property nearby is being used as a cannabis farm, or they think a neighbour or friend is suffering from domestic abuse. Our charity wants everyone to know that we are here, and they can pass on their information to us, and no one will ever know. We guarantee your 100% anonymity. We are not interested in who you are, just what you know.”
