One student said the service will help young people explain what happened to them more freely
A new specialist victim support service is now available for people under 18 in Nottinghamshire, offering them a chance to talk about their feelings after suffering from crime. Nottinghamshire Victim CARE is a free service commissioned by the Office of the Police and Crime Commissioner and provided by national experts Remedi.
Introduced in Nottinghamshire after its success in Derbyshire and Cheshire, the trained experts offer emotional and practical support, while identifying ways to cope and recover from experiences that have caused physical and psychological harm. Support is offered in a variety of ways, such as in person or online, with the comfort and wellbeing of the young person always the priority.
A Nottingham College student said: “The 'Got Your Back' campaign will be great for young people in Nottinghamshire because those who struggle to express their thoughts and feelings now have somewhere to go if they need help. Young people may also be more willing to explain what has happened to them if they know they don’t necessarily have to report it to the Police.
Of those who received enhanced support from these services, 90 per cent said they were better able to cope with everyday life or recover from harm after receiving this support – an increase of 8 per cent on the previous year.
