Greater Manchester published it’s
Gender-Based Violence Strategy in September 2021. Within this there
was a commitment to look at the needs of male victims of
Gender-Based Violence. The convening of a GM Male DA working group
is integral to this and will assist with developing the response to
male victims of domestic abuse across Greater Manchester.
ManKind Initiative contributed to the development of the terms of
reference for this working group, a scoping exercise undertaken to
identify what current provision looked like across Greater
Manchester and the Chairing of the first meeting. It was agreed a
£200 one-off payment would be given to ManKind in recognition
of the value of their contribution to getting the working group to
a strong and productive start.
£200 be awarded to ManKind Initiative
for the Chairing of the inaugural GM Male DA Working Group in
September 2022 and the preparation and planning which took place
ahead of this meeting.
