NCDV works with all the police forces and many statutory and voluntary agencies around the country. Our service covers all of England and Wales. We have an extremely efficient referral system www.referdirect.org.uk
The National Centre for Domestic Violence is not funded by the government. We create our own income and use it to provide free legal support to help victims/survivors of domestic violence and abuse. We also accept donations and actively fundraise for our dedicated Pro-Bono team, who work with people who get referred to us but who are unable to apply for Legal Aid.
We only have one objective; to help obtain civil orders – Non-Molestation Orders, Occupation Orders, Prohibited Steps Orders and Domestic Abuse Protection Orders (DAPO) where available. These are orders that victims and survivors of domestic abuse and violence can apply for themselves to protect them from further abuse. Our service is used by the police, by local authorities, statutory and voluntary agencies, Independent Domestic Violence Advisors (IDVAs), housing associations, the NHS and many others.
Our domestic abuse training has been developed to meet the need for high quality training around the issues of domestic abuse and coercive control, civil protection orders, and helping employers manage domestic abuse in the workplace. We deliver 1hr training on civil injunctions completely free of charge, and a range of competitively priced training for sector professionals and others. See information here Domestic Violence Training – NCDV
We invented and run the only nationwide injunction database for the police – www.ASSIST.uk.net. We provide access to injunctions for protection within 24 hours of the order being obtained.
We currently get roughly one-third of all the injunctions granted in the UK.
This is a free service. We have never, and will never, charge a victim/survivor for the service we provide.
Civil injunctions can empower victims/survivors of domestic abuse and violence and help protect them from abuse.
