We strongly support @womensaid 's call for government, community and society to stand against the racism, terrorism and Islamophobia that far-right groups have displayed this past weekend. No-one, including survivors of domestic abuse, should be further traumatised.
Following a week of attacks on Muslims and Black and minoritised people, we remain deeply concerned by the violence and its impact on survivors, as well as the specialist services that support Black and minoritised survivors. Read our latest statement: womensaid.org.uk/womens-aid-…

“We need to move forward as a society to make change and no longer accept VAWG as inevitable.” Welcome publication of new estimates from @PoliceChiefs and acknowledgement that we need a whole-system approach to tackle #VAWG
New report from @PoliceChiefs estimates there were 2.3m perpetrators of #VAWG in the last year - and that they are becoming younger. The new govt wants to halve this number in 10 years - more robust data and evidence will be key to getting this right. theguardian.com/society/arti…

Ahead of the #KingsSpeech tomorrow, we ask @_Government_UK to set out its plans to halve #VAWG in a decade, and the tools it intends to use to tackle perpetrators. We need a response that truly matches the scale of the problem #StateOpeningOfParliament

Our animation for #NSAW2024 showcases what an effective multi-agency response to stalking looks like. That’s why we’re calling on the next government to roll Multi-Agency Stalking Intervention Programmes out across all police forces.

I love coming together with colleagues across the sector, feeling the power of many voices together determined to bring about change. Thanks @womensaid for your collaborative leadership #solidarity #strongertogether
With only two weeks left until the next Government is selected, the united voice of the sector is more important than ever, urging everyone across our society to come together and end the epidemic of domestic abuse.
