Concerns about a child's welfare
If a child is at immediate risk of harm, call the police on 999.
If you're concerned about a child’s welfare, you can use our online forms to make:
- a non-urgent referral: if you think a child or family needs extra support to meet their needs
- an urgent referral: if you think a child may be at risk of serious harm, or if you think their basic needs are not being met
You can also make a referral by calling us on 0161 217 6028, and selecting option 1.
Anonymous referrals
If you wish to make an anonymous referral to the MASSH, you should call us instead of using our online forms.

- use our online form to request extra support from the MASSH
- call us on 0161 217 6028, and select option 2
