Domestic Abuse Must Be a Priority for the Next Government

Millions of Voters Affected

Domestic abuse affects voters across all constituencies, regardless of background or location. With one in five people experiencing domestic abuse in their lifetime, it's crucial for political parties to address this issue in their manifestos.

Calls for Bold Commitments

The next government must make tangible changes to tackle domestic abuse, not just pay lip service to the issue. With 19 out of 20 perpetrators not facing justice and services turning people away, urgent action is needed.

Transforming Government Response

Domestic abuse should be at the core of government business, impacting various departments from Home Office to Treasury. With societal costs reaching £74 billion and millions affected yearly, a comprehensive approach is vital.

A Cross-Departmental Mission

The next government should adopt a bold vision for transforming the response to domestic abuse, involving every part of government and public services. It's time to make addressing domestic abuse everyone's business.

Shining a Light on the Issue

Politicians must no longer treat domestic abuse as a "hidden crime." It's time to stand with victims, survivors, and transform lives across the country by bringing this issue to the forefront of political agendas.
