#34 - Interview with the Major Peter Chand from the London Borough of Barking & Dagenham.

Stop Sweeping It Under The Carpet.

The pandemic has shone a spotlight on domestic abuse. In Barking and Dagenham prior to the pandemic they had the highest report of abuse. The Borough took matters in hand to find out the reason why their figures were so high in comparison to the other London boroughs. As a result they launched the Domestic Abuse Commission Report. Mayor Peter Chand has joined me to talk about the report and the hope to roll this toolkit to other boroughs in the future. Here's what he had to say.
