Concerned an adult is at risk of harm?

Harm isn’t always visible, and it can happen anywhere: in someone’s home, at work or in a public place.

This Adult Support and Protection Day, we’re asking everyone in Dumfries and Galloway to stay alert and spot the signs of an adult at risk of harm.

Learn what to look out for here:
👉https://www.dgppp.org.uk/i-am-member-public/support-vulnerable-adults/spot-signs-adult-risk-harm

If something doesn’t feel right, say something.
You don’t need to be certain, your concern could help protect someone.

📞 Social Work: 030 33 33 3001
📞 Police: 101
🚨 Emergency: Call 999 if someone is in immediate danger

Everyone has a role in keeping adults safe. If you’re worried, please reach out.
