What if you're an offender
If you commit a crime or help someone commit a crime, you're what's called an 'offender'. People commit crimes for lots of reasons.
Some people who've been a victim feel that taking 'revenge' is OK. It isn't. If you want to see justice done - contact the police. If you've been a victim and you want to talk about it, contact Victim Support.
Victim Support helps anyone who has been a victim of crime. But we don't work to help offenders. Here are some organisations which do.
