Countrygirl I hope you are okay. It is great that you have reached out to question what the next step is. There is a lot to unpack about your short sentence. If the person was abused as a child and is now ready to report it that is a huge step and it is great they have you to support them. Search for 'NSPCC non recent child abuse' and there is lots of info that might help xx
