Appropriate Adults Service

The Appropriate Adults Service plays a crucial role in the police investigation process, ensuring that the rights and welfare of all vulnerable individuals are protected across the areas covered by South Wales, Dyfed Powys and Gwent Police. While the support provided by Appropriate Adults is short-term, it serves a crucial purpose by advocating for vulnerable individuals and ensuring their protection and fair treatment during a critical phase of legal proceedings, helping to mitigate potential injustices and fostering trust in the justice system.
