answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 11/01/2022 answer text <p>We ran a national Call for Evidence on Tackling Violence Against Women and Girls which received an unprecedented 180,000 responses and highlighted numerous issues that the Government is determined to address. This evidence informed our Tackling Violence Against Women and Girls Strategy, which we published in July 2021, and will later inform the forthcoming publication of a complementary Domestic Abuse Strategy, in the coming months. We are committing to radically changing how we end violence against women and girls with a whole system approach focusing on: prioritising prevention, supporting survivors, pursuing perpetrators, underpinned by a stronger system.</p><p> </p><p>Among the many commitments in that Strategy, NHS England and NHS Improvement committed to undertake a communications campaign to raise awareness of the support available to victims and survivors through Sexual Assault Referral Centres. Where appropriate, NHS 111 call handlers are trained to signpost people to their local Sexual Assault Referral Centre. NHS England has put in place training for NHS 111 call handlers to ensure they are equipped to support victims and survivors of sexual violence appropriately.</p> answering member constituency Redditch answering member printed Rachel Maclean question first answered 11/01/2022 09:05:03 answering member 4668 label Biography information for Rachel Maclean
