Give information 100% anonymously
If contacting the Police is not an option for you, you can pass on crime information without giving any personal details to the charity Fearless.org
Fearless is where you can access non-judgemental information and advice about crime and criminality. Fearless also provides you with a safe place to give information about crime 100% anonymously, which means:
- You will not be asked for your name, gender, age, contact details or any other personal information.
- The site cannot trace your IP address as their system is designed to protect your identity.
- The site will not record any personal details you might mention when completing the form.
Additionally, the site has a “hide your visit” button, which removes the fearless.org visit history and takes you back to your web browser homepage.
Only you will know you visited fearless.org.
Here is the direct link to their anonymous reporting page: https://www.fearless.org/en/give-info
Please be aware that when giving crime information, you must state the location of the information, ideally with the county. For example: Billy Jean in yr 9 at St Knights School in Luton, Bedfordshire, is selling drugs at school ** if you don’t know the location information, you can provide the relevant ‘what three words’ from the website or app.
