Goodness, there’s a lot of responses, but really glad to support out there for the work we do 🙌

LATEST | A year on from seizing almost £2.9 million in assets from renowned social media influencer Andrew Tate and his brother Tristan, Devon and Cornwall Police is seeking to invest money in projects to support action on violence against women and girls.

In December 2024, Devon and Cornwall Police was successful in a civil forfeiture order against the Tate brothers which saw in excess of £2.9 million in assets and costs seized.

The order was granted after the force was successful in proving the brothers had both cheated the revenue and laundered money through bank accounts which were based in Devon.

The investigation focused on substantial earnings accrued between 2014 and 2022, during which time Westminster Magistrates Court heard no tax or VAT was paid on those funds.

Both the Tates also sought to hide the true nature of their funds by paying money through ‘front’ accounts. That represented criminal activity, and those earnings become proceeds of crime as a result.

Following the landmark ruling, more than £1 million of the seized funds has been returned to the force to spend locally.

A spokesman for Devon and Cornwall Police said: “Our work to seize the money from the Tate brothers was diligent and showed our commitment to not allowing criminality to operate in Devon and Cornwall.

“While a sum of the seized money has been returned to the treasury, a significant sum has come back to the force locally to reinvest.

“We have decided this money will be reinvested into projects which focus on our commitment to battle violence against women and girls and support our newly launched VAWG reduction strategy.”

The spokesman added: “A panel has been established to identify projects and initiatives in support of our communities.

“Throughout the coming months we intend to show our communities how these funds can make a difference and support our communities in taking a stand against those perpetrating abuse and putting those funds at the heart of victim support.”

Thank you everyone’s attend our J9 Domestic Abuse Initiative UK training session today 🙌

📣Day 10 is all about Nighttime economy and street harassment. 📣

We all deserve to feel safe at night, whether we’re on a night out or walking home.

While this theme highlights the risks women still face from street and nighttime harassment, it is important to note that most sexual assaults and r**es happen in people's own homes by partners or ex-partners (2 in 5), or people known to victim-survivors (6 in 7).

This short video developed by Devon & Cornwall Police gives an overview of Project Nighteye, that aims to prevent sexual and other crimes by proactively identifying predatory sexual behaviour and intervening to prevent this escalating to an offence: Project Nighteye Animation - what is it, how to support and report: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-CH3Lim2JjA&t=5s

Support is available if you have experienced sexual harassment, violence or abuse:
