Blogs & conversations Global Lessons from Domestic Abuse Fatality Reviews

My Churchill Fellowship took me to Australia, Aotearoa New Zealand, Canada and the USA to explore how fatality review systems can help prevent domestic abuse-related deaths. That learning now underpins my ongoing research and my new book ‘The Potential and Peril of Reviewing Domestic Abuse-Related Deaths’, which brings international insights into dialogue with current practice in England and Wales – highlighting both the opportunities and challenges of meaningful review.

Blogs & conversations In Conversation with Cath Snow – Miscarriages of Justice: Improving Support for Survivors

We spoke to Churchill Fellow Cath Snow, survivor advocate at APPEAL, about her upcoming Fellowship to the USA. Her project explores how the UK’s approach to exonerees could be enriched by learning from American innocence networks. She’ll meet exonerees and grassroots organisations to understand how the UK could better support survivors of miscarriages of justice – not just at the point of release, but as they rebuild their lives.
