Domestic Violence
Dover District Council has decided on zero tolerance of domestic
violence in the District. To this aim the Council has devised
formal domestic violence operating guidelines for front line staff
to follow to assist victims of violence within the Council's
housing stock.
The guidelines have been produced with a multi agency approach
in consultation with Dover District Council's Housing
Needs/Homelessness Section, Health Visitors, the Police and other
social landlords that work in the district.
It is hoped that with this multi agency partnership victims of
domestic violence will be supported and enabled to sustain their
tenure if they wish to and are able to do so safely.
