Following the protests in London and elsewhere last week, the climate of intimidation and division is frightening for many - particularly racialised and migrant survivors, frontline professionals and communities. We stand with you. Our mission is to end abuse for good; our commitment is to dignity, safety and belonging for everyone.
SafeLives welcomes the findings of the Public Accounts Committee’s inquiry into improving family court services for children. For too long, survivors of domestic abuse - both children and adults - have faced a system that is slow, hard to navigate, and often fails to recognise or respond effectively to the risks they face.
No one should die as a result of domestic abuse. Dash was ground-breaking 15 years ago, but it has never had a Government-led review. SafeLives is calling for urgent reform: a survivor co-created, inclusive update of risk pathways backed by training, resources, and multi-agency action. Survivors deserve a system that protects them — adults and children alike.
SafeLives responds to ONS crime figures (2025) which show that violence and abuse remain a daily reality for millions of people across the UK.
