• Response to the findings from Lucy McDonald (Deputy Chief Executive, Advocacy After Fatal Domestic Abuse)   
• Questions and Answers about the findings

This webinar will be of interest to stakeholders involved in reviews, including practitioners, commissioners, senior managers, policy makers, and researchers. Those affected by domestic homicides and abuse-related deaths, including family, are also welcome to join, as are family advocates.
