      Hi

      I have reported to the police recently and they were fantastic a male and a female officer they helped a lot they rang my ex to warn him about misuse of telecommunications and scared him off from abusing me via texts, he still does by other means but they did what they could which just helped when I was feeling so helpless.

      Hope this helps and you can get the same support from your local police force x
