Help with domestic stalking

Victim Support West Yorkshire offers support to anyone aged 16 or over who has been subjected to fixated, obsessive, unwanted, and repeated behaviour from an ex-partner or family member. This can be recent or have happened in the past.

Our Independent Stalking Advocacy Caseworkers (ISAC) can help you to cope with your situation, take control, and start to move forward from your experiences.

Through risk assessment and safety planning we can help you to access the services you need. And we make sure you’re supported and kept informed as your case progresses through the criminal justice system, if you choose to pursue your case in this way.

We also signpost you to counselling services so you can develop coping strategies. Our support is available even if you’ve haven’t reported the incident to the police.

You can speak to one of our ISACs Monday to Friday 9am-5pm on 0300 373 0978.

Or email WY_ISAC_Service@victimsupport.org.uk.
