One of my overarching priorities is to protect vulnerable members of our community which includes protecting victims of domestic abuse. Don’t suffer in silence if you are a victim of domestic abuse please contact the police by dialling 101 or in an emergency 999.

UNiTE Campaign to End Violence Against Women

Joint letter from Dame Vera Baird QC, Domestic Abuse Commissioner, Nicole Jacobs and Catrina McHugh MBE.

"We are writing to ask that you share and encourage your police officers and staff to watch a film of the critically acclaimed play ‘Rattle Snake’ by the award-winning Open Clasp Theatre Company.

The play is based on real life stories of women who have faced and survived coercive controlling domestic abuse. It will be available to watch online for free to audiences across the world during the UNiTE Campaign to End Violence Against Women 25 November – 10 December 2019."
