I’ve long backed Claire’s call for a Victim Care Hub. This is precisely the kind of support victims need if we want them to stay in the justice process, not be worn down by it.
We must transform how victims and witnesses are supported before trial. Victims need dedicated sessions to prepare for cross-examination, virtual courtroom tours and clearer, trauma‑informed communication throughout the process. https://t.co/n6SffAhJUv

I was honoured to host Survivor Family Network and @Right2Equality in a powerful meeting addressed by mothers who have had their children removed by the family courts. There needs to be a parliamentary audit on the number of forced child removals as called for by @LDNVictimsComm

A special thank you to @Jess4Lowestoft for hosting the event and for supporting the call for a parliamentary audit into the number of forced child removals, as urged by @LDNVictimsComm. Your leadership is vital to driving the change families desperately need.

The brave words of my client — a mother who fought to protect her daughter from carrying the name of the man who raped her and threatened to kill them both. The Court ruled this little girl must continue to bear his surname. Please support her appeal- https://t.co/FMYWlEXfKx

Too many children are left with the lifelong impacts of experiencing domestic abuse, struggling to access the help they need. These new insights from @FoundationsWW today are really welcome and mark a turning point in understanding how we can support child victims to recover.
1 in 5 UK children experience #DomesticAbuse but too many children lack support. Today we launch: 📢Update on our 5-year #REACHplan to support child victims 📢 Pilot RCT results for Bounce Back 4 Kids & WeMatter Early findings: https://t.co/ZVPm6gHtOW

In recent years, a number of jurisdictions have brought in new legislation to make #coercivecontrol a crime. Learn about laws around the world that criminalize non-physical abuse, including coercive and controlling behavior. https://t.co/ZFrY7Ttuv0

On #WorldChildrensDay we stand with all children subjected to #Abuse and #Violence. Every 4 minutes a child is killed by an act of violence. About 90 million children alive today have experienced sexual violence. 550 million children live with mothers who are victims of violence

Nearly 1 in 3 women, an estimated 840 million globally, have experienced partner or sexual violence in their lifetime, a figure barely changed since 2000. In the last 12 months alone 316 million women were subjected to violence by an intimate partner 📰: https://t.co/h95sxk2B1r
