Partnership

Standing Together are the key element of the locally coordinated community response. They have, with the agreement of partners, introduced the new partnership structure described below. Our aim is to ensure that the operational activity of all the agencies (both voluntary and statutory) respond effectively to all aspects of domestic violence — and in a timely way. We recognise the crucial part agencies play in this issue and work with them to help them deliver their outcomes. Our overriding aim is always to ensure that victims and children are safe and perpetrators are held to account.
