Dear Supporters

Following the consultation earlier this year, the House of Commons Home Affairs Committee have today issued their report on Domestic Abuse.

There is a glimmer of hope in that they recommend that a priority for the yet to be appointed ‘Domestic Abuse Commissioner’ is to review of the impact on children of their experience in the family court process. Here is a brief extract from the report and below that is a link to the full report.

 ‘We recommend that the new Commissioner should have, as a priority in the first year of office, to review the impact upon children of the interaction between the family courts, children’s services, CAFCASS and the police, with particular reference to contact arrangements in domestic violence cases.’

Thank you once again for all your support so far, please continue to sign and share this petition and support it in any way you can. Until tangible improvements are made we need to continue to push hard for reform.

 Much love, Rachel & Teresa xx
