The council is committed to learning from good practice and providing appropriate training for staff. This will include e-learning domestic abuse awareness for all staff, specialist training for key roles and the introduction of Domestic Abuse Support Champions throughout the organisation.
We will actively seek to raise awareness of domestic abuse and encourage anyone that is experiencing it to engage with support services.
We are committed to achieving Domestic Abuse Housing Alliance (DAHA) accreditation and seek to learn and improve services through the accreditation process.
We will also raise awareness of the topic through articles published on our website, tenant and leaseholder newsletters and magazine and share awareness material on our social media channels and with relevant partners and agencies where and when appropriate.
