Our impact

Find out about the progress of our work – year on year – on the path to ending domestic abuse, for everyone and for good.

Each year we publish an impact report, showcasing the progress of our work on the path to achieve our mission of ending domestic abuse, for everyone and for good.

All the work we do is created collaboratively and delivered with our partners – thank you to our staff, Pioneers, Changemakers, Authentic Voice panel, trustees, Scottish advisory group, associates, frontline professionals, public services, domestic abuse and violence against women and girls sector agencies, corporate organisations and our many valued supporters who make this progress possible and share our vision of a world without domestic abuse.

Our reporting year runs from 1 July to 30 June.

This year’s Impact Report marks a milestone moment for SafeLives as we turned 21 and launched our 2025–2028 strategy, Find what works. Help it happen. Over the past year, we’ve continued to bring data, voice and practice together to strengthen whole-system responses that prevent harm, reduce risk and support recovery for every adult and child survivor.

From expanding the Drive Partnership’s work to challenge perpetrators and support new DAPO pilots, to advancing the national MARAC data platform and championing stronger recognition for IDVA and ISVA roles, we’ve pushed for consistency and accountability across the UK.

We deepened survivor leadership through our Authentic Voice work, including new panels and our first survivor-led conference in Scotland, and continued to grow programmes like CADA so children are seen, believed and supported sooner. We also trained more than 15,000 professionals across policing, health, housing, justice and beyond, helping to build a confident, trauma-informed workforce.

Thank you to the survivors, partners and funders who make this progress possible – together, we’re building the joined-up response families need to be safer, sooner.
