Your report is sent to the relevant authority with the legal responsibility to investigate crimes, make arrests and charge people in order to bring them to justice. This could be West Mercia Police or an agency such as the UK Border Agency or HM Revenue & Customs. Find out more with what CrimeStoppers do with your information here.
