Resolute: Zero Tolerance For Domestic Abuse

Mother who was victim of domestic violence says family court has allowed manipulation. She is among a dozen women ITV News has spoken to who say family courtrooms, where custody rights of children are decided, are being used as weapons for abusers. itv.com/news/meridian/…

@ResoluteSupport read the piece from Debbie Jones on the resignations of ministers key to VAWG . Well said , and totally agree- politicians only concerned with themselves not the people and roles they represent

It is with a very heavy heart that I have offered my resignation to the Prime Minister.

How can we have trust!? #domesticabuseawareness

Survivors shouldn’t have to survive the family courts too. Jasminder’s story is a devastating reminder that #coercivecontrol doesn’t always end after leaving an abuser; it can continue through the legal system itself. #DomesticAbuse #FamilyCourts refuge.org.uk/news/how-the-f…

At Resolute, we believe lived experience must be listened to, respected and used to create real change. We are not here to tick boxs. All enquiries:- teamresolute@resolutesupport.uk @clairethrossell

@KilledWomennw Totally preventable!!! It makes my blood boil!

Jo Shaw was killed in a blast on Sunday after her ex-partner forced his way into her Bristol home "in possession of an explosive device". bbc.com/news/articles/… Avon and Somerset Police force has referred itself to the Independent Office for Police Conduct due to previous police contact with Jo prior to Sunday, related to "other domestic incidents". 💔

The proximity system would have saved her! But if police don't listen, what's the point!!! @MoJGovUK

'Sharif, a taxi driver, was given permission by the council to transport children with special educational needs to school, despite reports to police that he had abused women and children.' dailymail.com/news/article-1…

Without repercussions the victims code is redundant. You need to be able to hold agencies to account if they don’t uphold the law.

Suffolk Police's application of the Domestic Violence Disclosure Scheme ("Clare's Law"), which gives people the right to know if their partner had a history of domestic violence, was putting victims at risk, a watchdog has ruled. bbc.com/news/articles/…

'Only 3% of suicides related to domestic abuse in England and Wales in the past five years have resulted in any sort of prosecution.' theguardian.com/uk-news/2026/m… 'In most cases, alleged perpetrators were not investigated for their role in a partner’s suicide or any possible abuse prior to their death. In some, existing inquiries into domestic abuse were closed without explanation after the alleged victim’s death.' '@CommissionerDA Nicole Jacobs, the domestic abuse commissioner for England and Wales, said there had been “tolerance of way too much variance” between forces after suicides related to domestic abuse, with “not enough inquisitive investigation measures” being applied in some areas at the early stages of an inquiry."' 'Asked if the loved ones of victims were facing a postcode lottery in their quests for justice, Jacobs said: “Exactly right.” She added that the low number of prosecutions was “hugely concerning” because domestic abuse was “highly repetitive”.'

"1,452 lives" 💔 'Domestic Homicides and Suspected Victim Suicides 2020-2025 Year 5 Report', by the National Centre for Violence Against Women and Girls and Public Protection (NCVPP) The executive summary reproduced in part here presents the main findings from the Year 5 Report. The full executive summary is available here: vkpp.org.uk/assets/NCVPP-E… The full report is available here: vkpp.org.uk/assets/Year-5-…

The fifth annual report from the national Domestic Homicide Project, which works across England and Wales, was published in April 2026. The report examines all deaths identified by police as domestic abuse related to improve understanding of risk indicators, victim and perpetrator demographics. The unique dataset collects detailed information on these deaths not available from any other source to help police and partners improve their response to domestic abuse, domestic homicide and suspected victim suicide following domestic abuse. The Domestic Homicides animation, drawing on data from 2020–2025, has been developed to distil key insights and findings into a simplified, accessible format for a wide range of audiences. youtu.be/aj3hEVvmtgU?si…

TRIGGER WARNING ⚠️ I posted this over a year ago! I keep saying and will continue to say, the majority of domestic suicides is due to the system failure in protecting and supporting victim/survivors! youtu.be/0U0h8vnEJIs?si…
