Mothers Against Coercive Control & Violence

MACCAV is a grass roots group of mainly women who use their experiences of GBV to bring changes in society and protect children.

We must now keep the pressure on for this change to be implemented, and continue to work for improvements in the recognition and protection of those who have experienced abuse.

**THE UK GOVERNMENT HAS CONFIRMED THAT THEY WILL REPEAL THE PRESUMPTION OF PARENTAL INVOLVEMENT**
Around 7 years ago, MACCAV was created by a small collective of women who had taken part in the production of the Harm Report, and who started campaigning for change.

So, today let's both raise a glass, and light a candle. 

For our children, their children and those to come:  We did it for you. 

To each other and to those no longer with us: You did it! We did it! But we also see you, and what this battle took from you.

“Barbara Mills KC, chairwoman of the Bar Council, said: "In our intervention, we sought to protect the core principle of immunity from liability for advocates.”
🤔 not actually seeing that listed as a core principle @barstandards

@erutluCretnuoC @louisetickle @hansummers @TBIJ I’m sorry to hear of the difficulties in your relationship with your mother

[Mothers Against Coercive Control & Violence @MACCAVonX]

Explosive investigative journalism from @louisetickle @hansummers @TBIJ and shocking comments from self appointed #parentalalienation expert Melanie Gill, who has helped abusers remove children from mothers who have disclosed domestic abuse https://t.co/gRUVeDwZj5

@PAcumbria @louisetickle @hansummers @TBIJ You would say that

This is an incredibly important appeal which will potentially have impact in terms of both welfare and transparency in family courts. Well worth watching

[Louise Tickle @louisetickle]

The appeal @hansummers & I are bringing against the ban on identifying judges involved in the historic Sara Sharif family law cases is listed tomorrow, in public, in front of the Master of the Rolls, King & Warby, and will be livestreamed - new link here: https://t.co/IXvnxDggnf
