It is natural to feel nervous about giving evidence. There are some things that you can do before coming to court to be better prepared:

• before you come to court, you should read the statement you made to police about what happened (if applicable);
• think about the events that you are giving evidence about. Try to remember the details of the incident like the times, dates, descriptions and actions;
• if English is not your first language and you find it difficult to speak or understand English, please speak to the prosecutor or relevant lawyer prior to the commencement of the proceedings about having an interpreter;
