Issue details

Hartcliffe and Withywood ward has been identified as the area where the reporting of domestic abuse incidents and crimes is the highest in Bristol. It is also the ward in Bristol where the highest percentage of people think domestic abuse is a private matter. It has therefore been decided to undertake some focussed work with residents to identify some projects which would:
1. Help to raise awareness/ prevent domestic abuse
2. Provide ongoing support to enable survivors of domestic abuse to progress and prosper.
It is intended that this work should complement commissioned domestic abuse services which provide support to victims at the point of crisis.
