Victims Code
All victims of crime have a right to some type of information and support from organisations like the police and courts. The Victims’ Code, which is available in the downloads section below, says what should happen from when you tell the police about a crime until after the trial. For more information about the Victims’ Code and the support mechanisms available locally visit the Humberside Police website.

The Government’s Victims’ Information Service offers valuable information about reporting a crime, police investigations, going to court, and after an offender is sentenced. It also explains the help you should receive and gives information on how to find specialist support after different types of crime.
