"Domestic Abuse always seems to happen behind closed doors and there is a societal view that it is not our issue to deal with. I am here to help people understand that this is not the case and we need to take action to prevent people dying. People have died in Shropshire and the learning from these case reviews has helped shape this training." Harriet McInnes, Domestic Abuse Training Lead for Shropshire Council
