Friend self-harming again

My friend has had ongoing problems with her neighbours being verbally abusive. They've found out about her mental health issues because she's posted on here: they're now using this as an excuse to shout more abuse at her. She has a history of harming herself and has now started cutting herself again because of all this. What can I do to help? She's a single mother by herself and has no way of moving. There is no medical help available and the police haven't taken her seriously.

Can anyone help?

Just be there for her. I say this as someone with a long history of self harm and my biggest help is just having someone there to talk about nothing to, the simple unpressured company.
You sound like a good friend for wanting to be there, I hope she can get through this soon
