Make a disclosure on behalf of someone else
- If someone has disclosed an experience to you, or you have witnessed or become aware of an incident, you can contact Campus Care for advice and support.
- If possible, discuss this with the victim-survivor first. If they have indicated they do not want to make a disclosure or formal report, it is important to listen to them and respect their wishes.
- If you're concerned about someone's safety or wellbeing but are unable to speak with them first, or they have not consented to you contacting Campus Care, you can still seek advice. To protect their privacy, don't share information that could identify the person/or people involved.
- Learn more about supporting someone affected by sexual harm or gender-based violence.
