Understanding Clare's Law

Clare’s Law also known as the Domestic Violence Disclosure Scheme (DVDS), lets you ask the police if your partner or ex-partner has a history of violence or domestic abuse.

Named after Clare Wood, who was killed by a partner with a known violent past, this scheme helps protect people by sharing this important information.

Anyone, regardless of gender or sexuality, can make an application to Essex Police for themselves or on behalf of someone else, if they have concerns.

This includes family, friends or those who may help to keep you safe such as a social worker. Their past doesn’t have to be your future.
