Together we set out our vision and requirements for the delivery of high-quality Violence against Women and Girls (VAWG) services across the London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham, the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea and the City of Westminster (the Councils).

Our vision is for women and girls over the age of 13 years to be supported through a coordinated community response. The councils are dedicated to improving long term outcomes and well-being for survivors and their families, where women and girls are supported by services that are responsive and tailored to best meet their needs. These core outcomes will be at the heart of a support service across the 3 boroughs.

Within our approach we recognise the crucial role that specialist services play in engaging and providing support for VAWG survivors and their families.
