Your Opinion Matters

Enabling women, young people and children who have experienced domestic abuse to feedback to statutory service providers in order that they may tailor their services to best meet their needs. This involves reviewing current provision and working together to identify improvements.

Beneficiaries are becoming embedded in strategic groups such as the Domestic Abuse forum; providing feedback on policies and legislation; and attending training and shadowing opportunities with other service providers.
