PUBLIC INFORMATION FROM CAMDEN COUNCIL

Camden Council’s dedicated team, Camden Safety Net, is providing additional support – such as increased contact and safety plans – for anyone who is experiencing domestic abuse or who feels unsafe at this time, and to their families.

You can contact the Camden Safety Net team in confidence on 020 7974 2526, Monday to Friday, from 9am to 5pm, at camdensafetynet@camden.gov.uk or visit the website camden.gov.uk/domestic-violence

To ensure the safety and wellbeing of those who use this service, staff will no longer be based out in the community.

In an emergency always call 999. If you feel you may be overheard, stay silent on the phone and the call will be forwarded to an operating system. Press 55 and the operator will then transfer the call to the relevant police force as an emergency.

For deaf, hard of hearing and speech impaired residents, you can send a SMS message to 999. Visit emergencysms.net for more information.

For non-emergency matters requiring police assistance please call 101.
