Baroness Newlove’s report found people’s lives have been ‘severely impacted’ because of the failure of forces to act on complaints.

A new report from the Victims' Commissioner highlights the damaging impact of persistent anti-social behaviour on its victims.

Baroness Newlove says victims are being let down by the criminal justice system after she surveyed more than 3,000 people about their experiences. "Victims have spoken: now it’s time for criminal justice agencies – and the new government – to listen."

Voices of 3,048 crime victims across England and Wales captured in landmark new report from the Victims' Commissioner.

New victim survey seeks to understand the impact of court waiting times — including delays caused by the Crown Court backlog — on victims across England and Wales.

Baroness Newlove: "Although this report focuses on London, I suspect similar issues plague police forces nationwide, making many of these recommendations relevant on a national level."

Baroness Newlove calls for government to develop robust strategies to tackle tech-enabled VAWG, such as AI deepfakes.

Too many victims of crime are still being let down by police who are failing to get the basics right, the chief inspector of constabulary has said in his annual report.

Baroness Newlove: “These findings are truly concerning.”

Baroness Newlove: "The justice system faces immense pressure, demanding difficult choices. Yet, victim safety must never be compromised."
