Influencing and Connecting Group for Voluntary Sector Leaders of organisations supporting prison/probation experienced people

Are you a leader of a Greater Manchester VCSFE organisation supporting prison and probation experienced people? Are you interested in collaborating with other leaders to connect, influence and improve outcomes and impact?

Clinks are hosting a pilot influencing group to gauge interest and explore the potential aims and outcomes of the group. This idea came about from a project with prison experienced adults, that highlighted systemic challenges, and lack of connectivity between sector organisations.

College of policing

The College of Policy is consulting on updated guidance for stalking or harassment, the authorised professional practice (APP) for stalking or harassment.

The Crime Survey for England and Wales estimate that around 1.4 million people experience stalking each year. Research indicates that stalking precedes the majority of domestic homicides.

Improving the police response to stalking is central to the government's mission to halve violence against women and girls in a decade.

Understanding a public health approach to serious violence

Serious violence continues to impact individuals, families, and communities across the UK. Traditional enforcement-led models alone have not been sufficient in reducing harm or addressing root causes. Increasingly, the public health approach has gained traction as a strategic framework for understanding and responding to serious violence in more holistic, preventative ways.
