Help with concerns
This section is designed to get you quickly to information about your concern, whether that’s because you’re facing domestic abuse; want to make a complaint; need advice on hoarding and self-neglect; want to report suspected tenancy fraud or avoid online and door to door scams.
We also want to make it easy for you to know what to do if you’re facing anti-social behaviour (ASB) or other difficult behaviour. Some problems count as ASB, others don’t, and some are criminal offences. Because of this, it’s difficult to know who to speak to for help so these pages cover the most common issues people face.
