If you see anyone you believe to be under the age of 18 and or are concerned about the health or welfare of anyone that you see sleeping rough please call 999.

A warm area will be available in Buckinghamshire Council Offices at Walton Street, Aylesbury; Queen Victoria Road, High Wycombe; or any of the Council’s libraries.
