Brief: The prevalence of suicide within domestic abuse perpetrators is an under-researched phenomenon.
Drive and the University of Bristol have embarked on the first study of its kind, exploring suicide rates in the high-harm, high-risk domestic abuse perpetrator cohort.
Within this session, findings of this study will be presented. In response to this issue, Drive has created an evidence-informed suicide prevention practice guidance – which will also be discussed.
