Campaign to Stop Domestic Violence
According to the Crime Survey for England and Wales (CSEW) year ending March 2020, an estimated 5.5% of adults aged 16 to 74 years (2.3 million people) experienced domestic abuse in the previous year. Police also recorded crime data show an increase in offences flagged as domestic abuse-related during the coronavirus (COVID-19).
London’s Metropolitan police service received an increased number of calls-for-service for domestic incidents following the lockdown, largely driven by third-party calls; this is likely because people were spending more time at home during this period.
Considering all this information, the Mental Health First Aid team at this contractor decided to display posters around site welfare facilities, offering help and support on the matter.
