Duncan Lewis, Family Solicitors, Consultation on services for people at risk of domestic violence in Wolverhampton

The City of Wolverhampton Council is inviting the public and service users to offer their opinions on services for people at risk of domestic violence in Wolverhampton.

Contracts for existing services are due to end on 30 June, 2017 – the council has carried out a strategic review of the support services currently available for people at risk of violence and abuse.

It has also developed a number of proposals for the future provision – and is holding a 12-week consultation, during which people can offer their opinions.

City of Wolverhampton Council's Cabinet Member for Children and Young People, Councillor Val Gibson, said:

“We are determined to do all we can to support services for women, men and families at risk of violence and abuse – and have carried out a wide ranging review of the current provision.

“The proposals seek to ensure that we are able to provide a wide ranging service offer – which includes accommodation-based provision, floating support and advocacy, services to address the perpetration of violence and abuse, making properties safe and secure, and the provision of counselling and therapeutic support for victims and their children.

“They will ensure that we will meet European benchmarks for service provision, including having specialist refuges and spaces for families.”

The consultation will end on Thursday, 3 November 2016.
