Violence against Women and Girls VAWG

Officers are continuing their efforts to tackle violence against women and girls by addressing a wide range of offences where they are affected. The nature of these crimes spans from minor incidents to serious offences, which means victims come from a broad spectrum of situations. The team is working to combat all forms of crime in the area, aiming to ensure that women feel safe walking the streets and to reduce their fear of becoming victims. In addition, the team is planning operations involving both overt and covert patrols to protect women and girls in public spaces.
