Fraud awareness
Report suspected social care fraud
If you have suspicions of suspected fraud, you can report these suspicions directly to our Corporate Fraud Team through our reporting form:
Alternatively, you can contact our team by email, or call the fraud hotline:
- Email: fraud@cheshirewestandchester.gov.uk
- Fraud hotline: 0300 123 7030
All information received will be taken in complete confidence and any personal information provided will be treated as strictly confidential.
Please provide us with as much detail as possible so that we can investigate the matter effectively. Where a referral does not provide us with enough detailed information about the matter, it may not be possible to investigate.
You can report fraud anonymously. However, in most cases it will help us if you leave your contact details, so that we can contact you for further information should we need it. Further details can be found on our fraud and corruption pages.
We treat all reports of alleged fraud very seriously and they will be investigated by our Corporate Fraud Team. What action we take will depend on the legislation relating to the service or area in which the fraud is committed.
Please note that it is not always possible to provide feedback due to confidentiality.
