Measuring progress
We will measure progress with:
- a domestic abuse dashboard (updated and reviewed quarterly, and published as a bulletin)
- regular surveys – to ensure we maintain an understanding of people’s perceptions, views, and experiences, and use them to inform future service design and delivery.
- workforce data, for example progress on domestic abuse training
- grant and contract monitoring data, that ensures funding assigned to projects and initiatives (in-house or commissioned) is delivering against stated aims and objectives
- learning and insight from Domestic Homicide Reviews and other safeguarding reviews where domestic abuse was an aspect of the case
This strategy highlights our dedication to victims within Buckinghamshire and to those coming in from out of the county, ensuring those we support are safe, protected, and empowered to rebuild their lives.
Together we can achieve real, sustainable progress to tackle domestic abuse with Zero Tolerance. There’s no excuse.
