Harmful Practices web pages are now live
A new resource has been launched on the Safe in Warwickshire website to provide information and advice for professionals to help tackle three categories of crime which can cause great harm to women and girls.
The Harmful Practices section of the website has a wealth of information, national resources, e-learning modules and details of local support services for:-
- Female Genital Mutilation (FGM);
- Honour Based Violence (HBV);
- Forced Marriage.
To access the pages, visit www.safeinwarwickshire.com/harmfulpractices
It has been designed to allow professionals working in the community to understand the issues, spot the signs and know what to do if they have concerns about an individual.
To help promote the new resource, posters have been produced for display in offices and other work spaces, which can be downloaded directly from the site. In addition, hard copies of the posters are available for anyone who is unable to download and print their own. These can be requested by emailing vawg@warwickshire.gov.uk
Please promote these pages widely to your colleagues and partners.
