We have launched a new Domestic Abuse Strategy

Date Added: 02/02/2022

Following a public consultation, we have launched our new Domestic Abuse Strategy for 2022 – 2025

Our Vision is for Central Bedfordshire to be a great place to live and work, in which children, young people, women and men can live free of fear, violence and abuse. The strategy outlines our five strategic aims to help achieve that vision and focuses on the importance of working with partners to prevent domestic abuse and provide support for victims.

The Strategy also details how we will provide Safe Accommodation as outlined in the new Domestic Abuse Act 2021. This means we will ensure all victims are supported to remain safe in their own home if they wish to and it is safe to do so, or to help them access alternative accommodation and support.

The new strategy is available to read on our website by using the button below.

Support is available to anyone who is experiencing abusive behaviour

I feel unsafe and I need help
You are not alone. Call the National Domestic Abuse Helpline 0808 2000 247.

Visit the Bedfordshire Domestic Abuse Partnership website for more information about local and national support for all affected by domestic abuse, including men, children and young people, older people and people from the LGBT+ community.

In an emergency, always dial 999.

I’m worried about someone else
If you’re worried about a family member, a loved one, a friend, a neighbour or a work colleague, you can report concerns about domestic abuse anonymously.

If you suspect domestic abuse and don't want to reveal your identity, talk to CrimeStoppers by calling 0800 555 111. Or visit the CrimeStoppers domestic abuse webpage where you can anonymously complete an online form.

I’m worried about my own behaviour
Call the Respect phoneline on 0808 802 4040 and talk to an advisor. It’s a free call and you won’t be judged or shamed.
