LAURA’S RESOURCES
Learn from the best! Given how prevalent domestic abusers and stalkers are and the increasing femicide rate, everyone should be trained to understand the risks and dangers. Laura spearheaded the campaign to criminalize stalking and coercive control in England and Wales and provides expert led masterclass training on coercive control, stalking, DASH Risk Identification, Assessment and Management and preventing murders in slow motion™
DASH RISK CHECKLIST
The Domestic Abuse, Stalking and Honour Based Violence (DASH 2009-2024) Risk Identification, Assessment and Management Model was implemented across all police services in the UK from March 2009, having been accredited by ACPO Council, now known as National Police Chief Council (NPCC).
This was pioneering and a significant step forward in keeping victims safe, turning a reactive ‘it’s just a domestic’ into a proactive ‘you must ask’ questions approach. This also meant for the first time all police services and a large number of partner agencies across the UK started to use a common checklist for identifying, assessing and managing risk.
