Stalking and harassment are serious crimes that can have a devastating effect on a person’s life. It can escalate, and in some cases, is a pre-cursor to violence or serious harm. If you believe you are being stalking, please report it. If you are not sure, or do not feel ready to speak to the police, there are a number of independent organisations that can help you (see links in the comment section below). Stalking behaviour is described as fixated, obsessive, unwanted and repeated - think FOUR.
