For social work emergencies out of office hours please call 0113 240 9536. We help carers, older people, children and young people, people with mental health problems and people with learning or physical disabilities, should a social work crisis occur outside office hours. Please only contact this service in a true emergency and if your needs cannot wait until normal office hours.

Noise nuisance outside office hours
If you are disturbed by noise nuisance in the evening, at night or at weekends and you aren't able to resolve the problem informally by talking to the people responsible, you can report the noise to us on 0113 240 7361.  We aim to respond to complaints within an hour. We assess the level of noise nuisance and will take appropriate action to reduce it.
