No one should have to fear harassment whilst participating in sports or exercise.
We call on the new government to commit to introduce new legislation to criminalise third-party #harassment.

Crime can have a huge impact on you, mentally and physically. Everyone reacts differently, but a lot of people feel strong emotions – especially soon after crime. My Support Space has a guide to help work through #DifficultEmotions in a healthy way. mysupportspace.org.uk

I share @CommissionerDA's concerns: accurate data is essential; good policy rests on real numbers.
But this is about more than just columns in a spreadsheet. It's also about safeguarding each and every survivor.
Without a clear picture of offending, we risk failing victims.

📢 My analysis today shows nearly 18,000 domestic abuse crimes are missing from police statistics - after police were instructed to count fewer crimes.
Administrative ease must never come before accurate recording of domestic abuse.
