Spotting the signs of stalking
Tuesday 25 November 2025
This White Ribbon Day, we’re launching a campaign focused on raising awareness about stalking: what it is, how to recognise it, and where to get help.
What is stalking?
Stalking is a pattern of unwanted, repeated behaviour that can leave someone feeling scared or distressed. It’s not always about threats or violence – persistent, unwanted contact that causes distress is still stalking
Key advice
- THINK FOUR: If the behaviour is fixated, obsessed, unwanted, and repeated, it is stalking.
- Trust your instincts: Feeling threatened or uncomfortable is enough reason to act.
- In immediate danger? Call 999 straight away.
- To report stalking:
- Visit the South Wales Police website
- Call 101
- Contact the National Stalking Helpline on 0808 802 0300 for confidential advice.
Raising awareness about stalking is vital because it often goes unnoticed until it escalates. By sharing this information, we’re helping people to recognise the signs and take action early.
Watch our campaign video here and help spread the word by sharing it from our social media pages.
