🧵3/4

At SafeLives, we’re ready to work alongside government, public services and communities to deliver real, lasting change. But this can’t be done through the criminal justice system alone.

We need:
➡️ A #WholePicture response—prevention, risk reduction and recovery

SafeLives post with text that reads "#FindWhatWorksHelpItHappen. How things should be" and a flow diagram that says "prevent harm, reduce risk and support recovery".

💙 Prevent harm
🩷 Reduce risk
💜 Support recovery

This is what every survivor needs — and what every system should do.

SafeLives post with graphic of mismatched shapes with text that reads "#FindWhatWorksHelpItHappen. Creaky and disconnected systems let survivors down".

Survivors are let down by fragmented systems that don’t talk to each other.

Disconnected services = missed risks = unsafe families.

It’s time to connect the dots.

SafeLives post with text that reads "It made me realise I had been through coercive control. I didn’t realise it had a name or that it was abuse. No one had ever asked me that before. It made me feel seen and heard (Survivor, Public Health Approach survey)".

🔹 A #WholePicture approach – supporting adults, children and young people
🔹 Action on perpetrators – not just crisis response
🔹 #TraumaInformed leadership and a confident, capable workforce
🔹 Sustainable funding for specialist services

SafeLives post with text that reads "#FindWhatWorksHelpItHappen. We listen. We analyse. We innovate."

We listen.
We analyse.
We innovate.

That’s our method — it’s the engine behind everything we do, and the way we help make change happen.

🧵3/3

We want to see:

🔹 A #WholePicture response – supporting adults, children and young people.
🔹 Coordinated action on perpetrators – not just crisis response.
🔹 #TraumaInformed leadership – and a confident and capable workforce.
🔹 Sustainable funding for specialist services.

🧵4/5

💙 Take a multi-agency approach across health, social care, housing, policing — because no one service can see the #WholePicture alone.

💙 Put survivor voice at the centre of how we design and deliver services — so responses are truly trauma-informed.

#WholePicture #FailureLearning #TimeBinding #GeneralSemantics

🧵2/3

We need a #WholePicture response—one that understands the patterns of harm, supports both adult and child survivors, and holds perpetrators accountable before abuse escalates to fatal levels.
