The online launch of our new report: "Commissioning for inclusion: Delivering services for LGBT+ survivors of domestic abuse" is fast approaching. If you plan to attend, please register to ensure your place. The Zoom link with the log-in details will be sent an hour before the event to all registered delegates. Please join us at the online launch event on November 19th, 2020 10:30am – 12:15pm, register here.
