Tackling domestic violence
We are constantly striving to fight domestic violence. We work in partnership with the Police, NHS, Voluntary sector and other statutory agencies to ensure a co-ordinated approach to tackling Domestic and Gender Based Violence.

Multi Agency Risk Assessment Conference (MARAC)
MARAC is a multi-agency approach to reducing the risk around high risk victims of Domestic Violence. A MARAC takes place once a month and involves partner agencies sitting around a table offering solutions to people who have experienced Domestic Violence. Referrals are made using the Co-ordinated Action Against Domestic Violence (CAADA) risk assessment tool which helps referring agencies determine the level of risk.
The checklist builds on the most commonly used risk assessment tools but has a wider scope which includes family violence, stalking and honour based violence.
- Download the Risk Identification Checklist (external link) here.
CAADA also have some very useful toolkits designed to help various agencies who sit on MARAC, to find out more visit the CAADA website (external link).
