12 MONTH PILOT COMPLETED
VICTIM PROTECTION SERVICE
“The proactive work undertaken by the Victim Protection Service within the Criminal Justice System, business and industry is the biggest departure from existing safeguarding and protection work carried out in the UK
Six years of research with over 30 years of insight, skills and knowledge led to the collation of information, intelligence and evidence for Eve and the Team to develop the UK’s first Victim Protection Service model for better safeguarding, risk management and protection of all levels of risk for victims of crime, which cover the following key areas:
Domestic Violence and Abuse
Stalking
Sexual Violence
Harassment
So called ‘honour’ abuse
Abuse
The Victim Protection Service was self funded and delivered voluntary by our dedicated, forward thinking, ground breaking team and focused on the provision of specialist safeguarding and protection services for vulnerable people and victims of crime going through the Criminal Justice System and Civil Court proceedings.
As a pilot for SAFE CPS, it was part of the wider development of training and national advocacy and support services planned by our organisation and led to developing and securing routes of safety for very excluded and vulnerable women, men and children.
Operating for just over one year the service began to take referrals in November 2014.
The Victim Protection Service was staffed by volunteers on a full time basis, all of whom had hugely experienced backgrounds, including extensive work in the violence against women and child abuse sectors along with managing, safeguarding and protection and service operation, management and delivery.
