Nottingham commended for extent of domestic violence service provision

Map of Gaps:The Postcode Lottery of Violence Against Women Support Services commends the provision of services in Nottingham along with only eight other areas in Britain.  The report states that:

"Very few areas can claim to have sufficient service provision to meet the needs of their
female population who have recently suffered violence, let alone the many more who
struggle to cope with legacies from the past. We commend the nine areas with the most
extensive provision – Birmingham, Bradford, Glasgow, Hammersmith & Fulham,
Leicester, Liverpool, Manchester, Nottingham and Sheffield – but note that at least three
of these have minimal sexual violence services."
