Residents are being invited to have their say on services accessed by victims and survivors of domestic abuse, including safe accommodation.

The feedback will help to inform the domestic abuse support in the Safe Accommodation Strategy 2022 – 2025, as well as identify areas where improvements or enhancement are needed, highlighting where best practice is being delivered.

For those who have experienced domestic abuse, as a victim/survivor, a friend or family member, or as a professional providing support, feedback can be shared anonymously.

In addition to the consultation, Bolton Council are also looking for representatives to be part of a group that helps shape the support for people impacted by domestic abuse.

If you are interested in the opportunity, contact the Community Safety Team via email: community.safety.services@bolton.gov.uk or call 01204 331051, leaving your name and contact details, using the reference: ‘Domestic Abuse co-design group’.
