Do you need to give your name?

Any information you give will be treated with great care. Any details, including your name, will not be revealed unless the child’s safety requires it.

Enquiries into the child’s welfare can still be made even if you don’t give your name. However, withholding your name may make it more difficult for those looking into your concerns.

Any information you give may need to be shared with other professionals to ensure appropriate action is taken to protect the child.
