Background
Many victims only learn of a partner’s abusive history after serious harm has already occurred. Earlier disclosure and more awareness could help people make safer choices sooner. Posters and adverts with Clare’s Law details in schools, workplaces and public spaces could help people recognise risk, understand coercive control and stalking, and know where to seek help.
