Thank you Sarah Sackman KC MP for highlighting the devastating impact of court backlogs on victims. Every day of delay denies them justice and deepens their trauma. The Government must act now to deliver urgent reform and restore trust in a timely and effective justice system.

Thank you to BBC Woman's Hour for having me on to discuss my latest report on why victims are quitting the justice process. Thanks to âBarbaraâ for bravely sharing her experience â a powerful reminder of why the reforms Iâm calling for are so urgently needed bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m0âŚ



Too many victims feel forced to walk away from justice. New Victimsâ Commissioner London shows why: the system is convoluted and draining. It also shows what works: if we want victims to stay engaged, we must invest in the services that support them. My statement: victimscommissioner.org.uk/news/london-viâŚ




69% of rape victims withdraw before their case even reaches court. The justice system is failing. If we want to keep people safe, we need faster justice, access to better support, and a system that doesnât retraumatise victims. We need urgent change. standard.co.uk/news/crime/vicâŚ


This right here! EVERY victim of abuse should read Dr. Jessica Taylor 's note. As I waited nearly two years to see my rapist face trial, I was told by a Met officer to go to GP and get medication to deal with my anxiety, while in fact I feared for my life as he was released on bail


Too many victims of sexual offences are re-traumatised by their experiences in court. Law Commission's proposed reforms could change this, and safeguard victims' privacy, dignity and rights throughout the justice process. My full statementâŹď¸




1 in 8 women faced sexual assault, domestic abuse or stalking last year, new data shows. The ONS confirms it: violence against women is not rare. Whatâs rare is justice. Whatâs rare is being able to access local support. Whatâs rare is accountability. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/âŚ
