COVID-19 Guidance for Health & Social Care Three Boroughs / COVID-19 National Health Guidance
As calls to the domestic abuse helpline continue to rise during the Covid-19 isolation measures, we anticipate that survivors accessing support from health and social care practitioners will also increase.

The guidance above has been produced to support healthcare professionals and practitioners to respond appropriately under these unique circumstances.
