Be a voice for that moment in time that someone cannot be, if you see something, please do something, if you can do it safely. Only if you can do it safely.
If it is not safe for you to call Police, please document the details of what is happening, the people, the place, the date, the time and any other relevant information and provide it the necessary support agencies when it is safe. If someone is at risk, and is currently being hurt, and you can call the Police, or if it is you and you want to call the Police – please call 111 (in Aotearoa New Zealand).
If you do not want to call the Police, but you are wanting support, please reach out to our incredible Refuge services across Aotearoa New Zealand – call them on 0800 733 843 and they will offer advise and support.
