Inspire North's Domestic Abuse Navigator team attended the 'Working with domestic abuse conference' at GGlow Venue Hire to show our continued support for TThe Official 16 Days of Activism Against Gender Violence Campaign

It was a fantastic day with some great guest speakers. It was a very informative day hearing from CCrime Analyst Laura Richards and Dan Guinness.
