Please Sign the Petition "Provide more funding for stalking advocates for victims of stalking" and Support Gracie's Law
I am a victim of Stalking and Harassment. If you have never been stalked you have no idea what it feels like, but in real life it's a type of abuse, as it makes the victims feel vulnerable.
According to the Stalking Advocacy Service website, Veritas the definition of stalking as “A pattern of fixated and obsessive behaviour, which is unwanted, repeated, persistent and intrusive and causes fear of violence or engenders alarm and distress in the victim”.
In the legal terms Stalking and Harassment are associated together.
Stalking behaviour includes following, watching, spying, monitoring, someone that causes the alarm and distress on the victims. These are the most obvious behaviour my by stalker, but each stalker's behaviour could be different.
Stalking is illegal and you need to report the stalker to the police as the government website recommended. https://www.gov.uk/report-stalker The national helpline for Stalking is Telephone: 0808 802 0300 and the website
