Fund the relocation of sexual/domestic abuse victims after a conviction
We urge the Government to fund local councils to enable the immediate relocation of victims of sexual or domestic abuse and violence from where the incident occurred or away from where their abuser resides, if wanted, once a court conviction is secured.
Fund free civil legal support for survivors of sexual violence
Create a Government-funded scheme that provides free, specialist civil legal support for survivors of sexual violence. This should cover legal advice, representation, and essential case costs, ensuring survivors can pursue civil claims regardless of income or financial barriers.
Introduce an Emergency Legal Protection Certificate for domestic abuse survivors
Fund and provide state-funded legal advice and representation for domestic abuse survivors with verified police evidence via an Emergency Legal Protection Certificate, which will be provided to survivors and allow them to receive immediate protection and support while navigating the legal system.
Amend divorce law to protect survivors of spousal sexual abuse
Change the law so that in cases where one spouse has been convicted of rape or other serious sexual offence against the other, the survivor is legally safeguarded from any financial claims made by their abuser in divorce proceedings.
Review family court legal aid for working mothers who've survived domestic abuse
We believe the legal aid means test is outdated, unfair and doesn't reflect the cost of living. We are concerned that women are being trapped in unsafe situations or denied justice as they earn slightly too much on paper. No mother should have to choose between safety and justice due to her salary.
