Purpose

The
purpose of this decision is to authorise officers to pursue White
Ribbon accreditation.

The Council achieved Domestic Abuse Housing Alliance (DAHA)
accreditation in December 2022. The White Ribbon accreditation
serves a significantly different 
purpose to DAHA as DAHA addresses the Council’s role as a
housing provider whereas White Ribbon will allow the Council to
demonstrate its commitment to tackling violence against women more
broadly.

Due to the DAHA accreditation, pursuing the White Ribbon
accreditation is now more achievable than it was previously and has
been recommended to the Lead Member by the Council’s
Corporate Safeguarding Group.
