Issue details

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.
