Finding you the right support

Derbyshire Victim Services are here to provide both the public and victims of crime with easily accessible information, advice and links to local and national support services. It helps ensure people can self-refer to support services and access information on a wide variety of different crime types. It also offers people the opportunity to report a crime and provides advice on what to do if somebody has been a victim of crime.

Whether you have been affected by crime – or you know someone who has – this website could help. It offers advice for those affected by crime and will provide support, information and advice for the public and victims of crime alike. If you have been the victim of a crime, it is important that you understand the steps that come next and how to receive the support you need.

💬 Isolation is a form of abuse — and it often begins long before any physical harm.

Controlling and coercive behaviour can include slowly cutting someone off from friends, family, or their usual support networks. These behaviours may be subtle at first, but they are serious and can escalate over time.

The Home Office’s #Enough campaign raises awareness of these patterns, helping people recognise the signs and understand how to safely support someone who may be at risk.

Here in Derbyshire, partners across the county continue working to improve understanding of controlling and coercive behaviours. Raising awareness is an essential part of helping to keep victims safe and ensuring they can access the right support when they need it.

🔗 If you’re worried about someone — or concerned about your own relationship — confidential support and guidance are available:

Together, we can help ensure harmful behaviour is never minimised, excused, or ignored.

The Caribbean Carnival is a fantastic annual event that brings together people from all walks of life across Derby, Derbyshire and beyond - to celebrate culture, community, artistry and performances at the event. 🎊🎤

This year’s theme was Strength, Unity, Resilience and Empowerment.

It was a fantastic showcase of the very best of our city and county. A big thank you to Derby West Indian Community Association for their hard work in organising the event year on year, and to every person who stopped by to talk to the PCC and Deputy PCC about crime and community safety. 👏
