What we mean by anonymous

Anonymous means that your name is not known or made public.

We know that our guarantee to never ask for your name or record your call is vitally important to you.

It makes it easier for you to come forward, breaking the silence around criminal activity and removing your fear.

What we mean by anonymous

• you will never be asked for your name
• your call will not be recorded
• your call or online form will not be traced
• you will not have to make a statement to the police
• you will not appear in court.

We create a report from the information you give us. Our call handlers will check that this report contains no information that might identify you, e.g. if the call is about your neighbour we will not mention this. We don't even make a note of your gender.

If the identity of one of our callers was made known it would destroy trust in Crimestoppers and no one would contact us. This is another reason why it is so important to us that we can guarantee your anonymity.

To give information anonymously to Crimestoppers now, call 0800 555 111 or fill out our anonymous online Giving Information Form.
