Achievements in 2003

BBC Hitting Home campaign

  • We acted as advisers on the campaign
  • Appeared on Panorama
  • Provided information for the website developed to support the campaign

Criminal Justice System

This has involved a number of projects including:

  • Developing and providing police training, nationally and locally
  • Advising the Metropolitan Police Service on their strategy and monitoring
  • Developing a policy for the Probation Service and participating in the joint review on domestic violence by Her Majesty’s Inspectorate of Constabulary (HMIC) / Her Majesty’s Crown Prosecution Service Inspectorate (HMCPSI).

Stella Project

Following the successful conference last year, we:

  • Raised funds to further develop this work on domestic violence and substance misuse
  • Produced a toolkit to address domestic violence and substance misuse.

Domestic violence and mental health

In March we held a seminar on this issue followed by a round table event in June. From this, a report has been produced with draft minimum standards of policy and practice that will be consulted before final publication.

What we hope to achieve in the coming year

  • A comprehensive domestic violence website
  • Recruitment of a further two members of staff
  • Development of an accredited domestic violence training scheme
  • Development of advocacy services across London.
