You can report what has happened through our reporting system Report and Support The system is confidential and will only be accessible to a small number of dedicated staff who will respond, based upon what you have shared. You are able to tell us what happened with your details in order that we can respond. You can alternatively tell us anonymously. Choosing to report anonymously means that we might not be able to help you directly but the information you provide can be used at a later date and will help us to provide better support to others and inform prevention work across the University.
