Scotland -- Free phones are being installed in eight hospitals in Strathclyde in an attempt to encourage victims of violence to contact police.
The pilot scheme funded by the Violence Reduction Unit will see phones located in A&E wards in the coming weeks.
Karyn McCluskey, of the VRU, said the trauma of violence and the ban on mobile phones in hospitals made it difficult to report violent crime.
