Crimestoppers is an independent charity that gives everyone the power to speak up to stop crime, 100% anonymously.

Whoever you are, wherever you live, from communities to companies.

By phone on 0800 555 111 and online at Crimestoppers-uk.org or Fearless.org for young people, 24/7, 365 days a year.

Fearless is the youth service of Crimestoppers and works to empower young people to make informed decisions about reporting crime.

In the last financial year, as a result of information given to us and based on partner feedback, 1,543 people were arrested and charged; £1,420,210 worth of property was recovered and drugs with a street value of £15,212,859 were seized.

We also share advice on how to protect the people we care about from crime, so everyone can feel safe.

After we receive an anonymous call or a completed online form, our specially trained, UK-based Contact Centre staff create a detailed report.

We then send this report to the appropriate authority responsible for investigating crimes, making arrests and charging people to bring them to justice. This could be the local police force or an agency such as the UK Border Agency or HM Revenue & Customs.
