It’s not a ‘domestic’, it’s a ‘crime’

Local authorities can now bid for a share of a £20m fund to support victims of domestic abuse.  This new fund will be used to increase refuge spaces and other accommodation for women fleeing domestic violence.  From ensuring that victims have somewhere safe to live & recover, to providing education, employment and life skills training, the fund will support a range of services to help victims rebuild their lives.

New Priorities for Domestic Abuse Services’ are also being published, setting out how local authorities should be responding to domestic abuse in a collaborative and effective way.
