CPS News Centre

If you follow us on social media, you can expect posts covering some or all of the following:

• Operational updates on decisions to prosecute or take no further action;
• Reactions and statements on trial outcomes;
• Policy updates from the Director of Public Prosecutions and other prosecutors;
• Updates on media appearances by CPS staff
• Content that explains the role of the CPS and how we work
• Highlighting of relevant work by our criminal justice partners and other stakeholders

We will aim to be fair and accurate in all the information we publish. We will aim to correct any inaccuracies as soon as possible.

We are unable to monitor social media round the clock. We are not able to engage with all those who seek a response from us due to resources but also due to privacy and the sensitive nature of some of our work. The best way to contact the CPS is through our website.

Please do not try to report crime using social media. To report crime, please call 101 or visit your local police station. In an emergency, always call 999.

If you follow us on social media we will not automatically follow you back. Being followed by us does not imply endorsement of any kind.
