DHRs or DARDRs?

from The Safeguarding and Domestic Abuse Sector Podcast

In this episode I explore the transition from Domestic Homicide Reviews (DHRs) to the proposed Domestic Abuse Related Death Reviews (DARDRs), and what this shift means for those working in safeguarding, domestic abuse and independent review work.  This conversation explores: Why the proposed move from DHRs to DARDRs represents a significant shift in how domestic abuse deaths are understood and reviewed The widening scope of reviews to include coercive control, economic abuse and deaths by suicide linked to domestic abuse Why the sector is still in a period of transition two years after the Home Office consultation closed, with no revised statutory guidance or implementation timeline published The growing conversation around accountability What this means for practice   Are you ready to find out more about independent review work?
