Extra help at court
If you think you need extra help at court to give your evidence, such as help with a disability, an interpreter or support with any other additional needs, you should discuss it with your witness care officer to see what measures can be put in place to support you.
Alternatively, if you are receiving support from the Pre-trial Witness Support Service, please speak to your supporter who can provide information about what special measures might be available to you.
Special measures are designed to help you give your best evidence at court. If the court agrees, you may be able to use special measures such as screens in the courtroom, communication aids, and giving your evidence via a live video link.
