What is SCALP?

Scottish Community & Activist Legal Project (SCALP) is a collective of people offering legal support.

We attend protests, challenge police abuse, support people in case of arrest, and provide legal guidance.

Interacting with the police in Scotland
❌No comment: most of the time you don’t need to give personal details or answer police questions
🔵Light blue bibbed police liaison officers *may* come across as friendly and ask questions. They aim to gather intelligence - say no comment
