Risk Assessment in domestic abuse

Requested Wed 11 June 2025
Responded Tue 17 June 2025

I am writing to request the following under the Freedom of Information Act, regarding use of and provision for the DASH checklist, aka Domestic Abuse, Stalking and Honour Based Violence:

1. Is the DASH RIC used by your organisation as part of services (for example, domestic abuse provision, victim support)?

2. Is the use of DASH RIC a standard provision or a requirement in contracts with third-party providers of relevant services (for example, domestic abuse services, sheltered housing)?

3. If the DASH checklist is used by your organisation, which organisation or organisations provide the training that includes DASH training (for example, Domestic Abuse Matters training)>

4. What is the cost to your organisation of such training? Please break this down by financial year over the last five years, as well as by organisation (if more than one organisation provides the relevant training)?

If the answer to any of the above is more complicated than a 'yes' or 'no', please provide a short explanation.
