We are proud to announce our involvement in Thames Valley Police’s ongoing efforts to tackle domestic abuse across Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, and Oxfordshire.
This initiative is more than a campaign—it is a commitment to making our communities safer and ensuring that every individual impacted by domestic abuse has access to the support and justice they deserve.
Why This Work Matters
Domestic abuse remains a deeply concerning and often hidden crime. Recent statistics reveal that between March 2023 and March 2024, 2.3 million people in the UK experienced domestic abuse, yet less than half of these cases were recorded as crimes by police forces nationwide. Many victims still suffer in silence, and under-reporting continues to be a significant barrier to effective intervention.
Thames Valley Police has made tackling domestic abuse a top priority. The force is actively working to encourage more people to come forward, ensuring that every report is taken seriously and responded to with urgency and empathy. This includes a dedicated focus on identifying victims, providing tailored support—especially for those at greatest risk—and ensuring perpetrators are brought to justice.
Our Partnership and Impact
We are committed to working alongside Thames Valley Police and other partners to improve awareness, reduce stigma, and ensure that support is accessible to all, regardless of background or circumstance. Our involvement is part of a broader, multi-agency approach that recognises the importance of collaboration in addressing the root causes of domestic abuse and supporting survivors.
A Shared Commitment
The ongoing work in the Thames Valley is a testament to what can be achieved when organisations unite, by standing together, we are sending a clear message: domestic abuse will not be tolerated, and victim-survivors will be supported.
We encourage anyone affected by domestic abuse (whether directly or as a witness) to reach out.
Your voice matters, and support is here for you.
