Let's talk about who we are and what we do 💬
Our journey began in 2015 when Connect Gwent was created, bringing multiple agencies under one roof to advocate for and support victims and witnesses in Gwent.
But what does this look like today?

Based in Pontypool, we provide a service across the 5 local authorities in Gwent.
We're made up of Police staff and support agencies working together to help you through the impact or crime
