housing sector’s response to domestic abuse

Kelly Henderson, co-founder of DAHA, said "DAHA’s mission is to improve the housing sector’s response to domestic abuse.

"We are very proud to be part of this pledge and commend CIH for taking the initiative to reach out to housing providers. We know the sector plays a crucial role in recognising and responding to domestic abuse and this pledge is a really easy way to not only demonstrate commitment but also take the first practical steps to improve your organisational response for both staff and residents.

"The spotlight on this issue in the housing sector is long overdue as we know that on average two women a week are murdered by a partner (or ex-partner). This campaign will make a positive difference and undoubtedly save lives."
