Victims' Commissioner for England & Wales

Today, I have announced £5 million of funding for the @CPSUK to support victims of domestic abuse in the Crown Court. Victims will be offered a pre trial meeting with the prosecution. This will provide them with better support and ensure their voice is heard.

We're putting victims at the front and centre of the justice system. These measures form part of the Government’s wider plan to halve violence against women and girls within a decade, ensuring victims receive the justice and protection they deserve. bit.ly/4rlozXI

A really special evening co-hosting with @VictimsComm for #IWD2026. So inspiring to spend time with so many brilliant women turning lived experience into strength, support and change.

We have published an inspection of @CPSUK's approach to prosecuting crimes against older people. Prosecutors are good at identifying vulnerability and supporting victims but court delays pose risks hmcpsi.justiceinspectorates.gov.uk/report/an-insp…

Great to be featured in this week’s Closer, discussing my case, the Victims’ Right to Review pilot, the campaign behind it, and the work of Make Yourself Heard (@MYH_ldn). Victims deserve to know they have the right to ask for decisions to be reviewed - yet too many still don’t know this right exists. We must keep the pressure on to ensure the pilot is made permanent.
