This is the first research project to obtain victim-survivor experiences & perspectives on Clare’s Law & accessing a domestic violence disclosure scheme. The project sought women’s views on how well they thought the scheme worked to prevent domestic abuse and what else might be done to improve women’s experiences and to tackle men’s violence against women
The Domestic Violence Disclosure Scheme allows for you, someone who cares about you, or someone you care about to ask if someone you/they are living with has a history of violent offences that may put you at risk of harm. The scheme is named after Clare Wood who who was killed in 2009 by her ex-boyfriend who had a history of violence towards women. The scheme also means that authorities have a duty to inform someone about a partner who is known to have violent criminal convictions, whether or not you have asked for that information to be disclosed.
