About the Insights database
We run the largest database of domestic abuse cases in the UK. Since 2009, we have gathered data from services working with victims, survivors, and their children into our Insights system. This gives us an unparalleled overview of survivors’ experiences and the support they receive.
Insights was redeveloped in 2017 and replaced with an online portal. For reference, the final published dataset using the old indicators is included on the downloads of this page.
We hope that everyone working to stop domestic abuse will be able to use this data to improve their services so that victims and families get the right help sooner.
