Petition Fund more training for public sector workers on domestic violence

Fund additional training on domestic violence for teachers, social services, police and medical professionals to help cases be identified and dealt with more effectively and efficiently.

More details

The number of cases of domestic abuse of children to adults is rising in the UK and we believe the systems in place victims are failing. Many victims don't have enough support and resources available to them.

I think increasing funding for training of public sector workers on domestic abuse would help these workers to identify victims, and could help prevent homelessness as a result of domestic violence.
