Shaping Birmingham’s Draft Domestic Abuse Prevention Strategy
Birmingham City Council’s Citizen Involvement and Domestic Abuse teams would like to hear your thoughts on the city’s new draft Domestic Abuse Prevention Strategy.
As a Birmingham citizen, you play a key role in our city’s response to domestic abuse, so YOUR feedback is needed on the joint draft Domestic Abuse Prevention Strategy 2024+. This important strategy will shape how collectively domestic abuse is tackled, how survivors are supported and how perpetrators are held to account.
A six-week consultation is available for you to join online at:
- Tuesday 28th November 12noon – 1.30pm
- Wednesday 29th November 5:30pm – 7pm
If you are unable to attend, you can complete an online survey, please visit BeHeard. The survey should take about 10 minutes to complete and is completely confidential.
To discuss the consultation or strategy, or submit responses by email, please get in touch at DAteam@birmingham.gov.uk
Anyone can be a victim of domestic abuse, and we know you may know someone, or have experienced it yourself – we commission specialist services that are available to you for help and support.
