Report it
In April 2008, we were commissioned by the London Borough of Waltham Forest to run the project 'Report it'. The project was formally launched six months later on 30 September 2009. Under this project, we provide specialist legal advice and advocacy services to the victims of domestic violence and hate crime in Waltham Forest. Since its inception, the project has been a huge success. 'Report' It provides free and confidential advice and support to anyone living or working in Waltham Forest who has been a victim of hate crime or domestic violence. Report it can:
1. Provide confidential, professional advice
2. Help report crime to the police
3. Provide free legal advice
4. Assist in seeking court orders
5. Help make your home safer
