Safer Community Unit
Safer Community Unit (SCU) responds to reports and disclosures of concerning, threatening and inappropriate behaviour, including sexual harm. SCU staff will listen impartially to your concerns, discuss ways to keep you safe, help you find the support you need, and provide advice on reporting an incident. When you contact us, you can let us know if you prefer to speak with a woman.
