Latest News National Stalking Awareness Week 2022 25th - 29th April 2022 Every year, we celebrate National Stalking Awareness Week by campaigning to raise awareness around a different issue related to stalking. This year, our campaign is called Bridging The Gap, highlighting the vital role that stalking advocates play in bridging the gap between the victim and the criminal justice system. We know that sometimes it can be hard to navigate police investigations and court hearings on your own as a victim, hence why the role of advocates is so integral in ensuring the victims remain empowered by keeping their voice at the forefront of the case. Report Thank you to all that took part in our survey in March 2022; the data has contributed towards a report on the role of stalking advocates across the UK and the experience of stalking victims. The report was published on Monday 25th April, accessible here: Bridging The Gap: A Stalking Advocate for Every Victim Conference We held an online conference on Wednesday 27th April 2022, with a number of key specialists taking part, sharing their expertise on stalking.
