A consultation has been launched asking for views on a new five year plan to tackle domestic abuse in the county
The Kent and Medway Partnership Domestic Abuse Strategy 2024-2029, produced by the Kent and Medway Domestic and Sexual Abuse Executive Group, looks at ways to respond to help those who are, or have, suffered abuse and preventative measures.
By bringing together partners including Kent County Council, Medway Council, Kent District, Borough and City councils, Kent Police, Kent Fire and Rescue Services, National Probation Service, NHS providers, the Department for Work and Pensions and the Police and Crime Commissioner, the strategy aims to reduce occurrences of domestic abuse and ensure that when it takes place, those affected get the right support, quickly.
