Launch of our new project across Hampshire that will ensure the voices, experiences and expertise of victims and survivors are at the heart of the region’s response to domestic abuse. The two-year project will put local organisations and survivors at the heart of tackling domestic abuse by supporting them to share lived experience and develop best practice. 

We welcome the Victims Bill becoming law. However, there is still much more to do to ensure all victims of domestic abuse can access the support they need.

We have developed non-fatal strangulation (NFS) training for professionals, while working with the Institute for Addressing Strangulation, for a range of professionals who encounter victims and survivors of non-fatal strangulation

Employers are well placed to spot the signs in colleagues: anxiety, decreased motivation, seeming distracted, being late, being on the phone to a partner or family member very often – and yet so often no one knows what to say or do. This must change.

We are pleased to be working with the Metropolitan Police and a fantastic team of experienced associate trainers to deliver DA Matters, a cultural change programme created with survivors and designed to create long term, sustainable change.
