IN AN EMERGENCY CALL 999
Coronavirus update
To all our visitors
We hope you are all keeping safe and well during these unprecedented times. Please make sure that you are aware of the latest information regarding Coronavirus (COVID-19):

At Veritas, we have already started operating our emergency protocol. We have suspended all face-to-face advocacy and support appointments and instead those appointments will be conducted via phone, WhatsApp, FaceTime, Skype or any other means of electronic communications to reduce the risk of spreading the infection to clients, staff and our communities.
This means that at present we are primarily working remotely. However, we will be using the digital tools at our disposal to help our clients, staff and volunteers to keep in contact, so hopefully you will not experience any major service disruption. We will also be stepping up our follow up calls and texts with our clients to reduce feelings of isolation and anxiety in the event of delays and/or disruption to frontline and emergency services.
- In an emergency, you should ring Sussex Police on 999 or you can report stalking online at https://www.sussex.police.uk/ro/report/ocr/af/how-to-report-a-crime/
- If you would like to talk to us, you can email us on support@veritas-justice.co.uk or call us on 01273 234773.
These are difficult times and it is important that we all look after our own mental health and wellbeing. Mental Health UK have put together this advice guide:
Please keep checking our website for more information and tips on how to stay well during this difficult time.
Best regards,
The Veritas Justice Team
