After hearing from 4,000+ survivors, 500+ services and 150+ funders - we know better than ever how to mend the #PatchworkOfProvision.

The answer is simple - more support is urgently needed and the #VictimsBill gives government the opportunity to do just that.

📢Our new mapping data revealed a #PatchworkOfProvision for #DomesticAbuse victims across England + Wales.

It highlighted huge inequalities. Funding for services is key to address this.

🧵2 years ago former Victims Commissioner @VeraBaird + I called for review of domestic homicide sentencing over concerns about gender disparities.

Information sharing between police and immigration enforcement hands abusers a tool to further control their victims - this must stop.

We must see government put #SafetyBeforeStatus so victims and survivors can safely report + perpetrators are brought to justice.

[Dame Nicole Jacobs @CommissionerDA]

🧵Every force shared details of #DomesticAbuse victims with immigration - about 423 victims from 2020 to 2022
Govt must agree to a firewall so victims can report safely without fear of deportation + abusers can be brought to justice

Latest @CPSUK #DomesticAbuse stats show a v poor picture - extremely worrying for victims + those working to support them + keep them safe

Last ¼ shows v slight ⬆️in cases referred by police but charge volumes ⬇️+ prosecutions marginally ⬇️ again (about 1%) from last ¼.

'We've got to have investigation units that have a sense of urgency'

Domestic Abuse Commissioner Nicole Jacobs tells @MishalHusain forces must set up teams to look properly at allegations against police officers, in light of the case of PC David Carrick

#R4Today

[Dame Nicole Jacobs @CommissionerDA]

🧵Rape + #DomesticAbuse victims utterly failed by @metpoliceuk: proper vetting should have weeded Carrick out 20 yrs ago

I want an urgent meeting with Met Chief + @SuellaBraverman to get a full action plan to rid the police of all perpetrators. 1/5

The holiday period can be difficult for many victims and survivors of abuse. If you need support, you can reach out to the organisations below.

[Dame Nicole Jacobs @CommissionerDA]

No victim #DomesticAbuse should ever be blocked from accessing support + protection

Yet my report shows thousands of migrant survivors are being left desperate + often destitute.

The interim report from the Casey Review exposes a range of failings by the @metpoliceuk in holding police perpetrators of DA and sexual misconduct to account. The data provided demonstrates serious structural failings.
