If you think someone you care about or offer care to, is being abused you should always tell someone.
Will I be believed if I tell someone? This is a very important question because many people fear that they won’t be believed if they tell someone about abuse. Often, people who are being abused or self neglecting are reluctant for others to become involved or may fear that they wont be believed. The police and social workers understand how important it is that they take seriously allegations of harm or abuse.
