| Summary, etc |
This report describes the findings of consultation with lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender survivors of domestic violence in West London on their experiences with the criminal justice system. The report draws on a focus group, eight completed questionnaires, and two follow-up interviews with lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender survivors of domestic violence. An account of the process used to contact and consult people is also provided, aimed at agencies wanting to consult these groups, and to those working to improve access to services for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender survivors of domestic violence. Key findings indicate assumptions and prejudices about lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people are commonly held and impact on the response of the criminal justice system. In relation to support services, lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender survivors need access to both services targeted to their sexual orientation and non- targeted services. Although lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people expect and accept a level of homophobia from service providers, support from agencies is particularly important to these survivors, as there is a lack of awareness within their communities relating to domestic violence. Survivors face particular barriers to leaving relationship in terms of shame and lack of housing options. The research also found that the courts and police fail to ensure the safety of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people and their children. Police need to demonstrate their commitment to dealing with domestic violence regardless of sexual orientation. Survivors had experience of police not following up their case adequately, and police need to be prepared to carry out a full investigation to counter the effect of prejudice on a case. Similarly, safeguards are required to ensure lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender survivors receive an equal service from the courts. |
