Council seeks new recruits to support victims of domestic abuse
Published: 01/06/2021
COPELAND Council is currently recruiting two full-time officers as part of its life-saving domestic abuse support service.
The Council introduced its specialist service in 2018 and has so far helped more than 300 men, women and children to leave abusive homes.
In addition to the roles, the Council has also increased its number of emergency properties to ensure residents, and their children, have a place to stay. These properties have been designed with added security measures to make victims feel safe.
