The Victims’ Commissioner wants to hear from you: Share your experience of the justice system and help make it better for others. https://orlo.uk/OsEye

Stalking is fixated, obsessive, unwanted and repeated behaviour.

It is a crime - and it should always be taken seriously.

Your voice matters: Help improve victims experiences by taking this national anonymous survey 📝

The Victims’ Commissioner for England and Wales has opened the 2026 Victims’ Survey to gather real experiences from people who’ve been the victim of crime in the past five years, including those who chose not to report to the police or who withdrew from an investigation or prosecution.

The survey is open until Wednesday 6 May 2026 and you can find it here: https://orlo.uk/Mqnct

It takes around 15 minutes and is open to anyone aged 16+ who has experienced crime since January 2021.

Coronation Street’s current storyline highlights an important truth about domestic abuse.

Many people will have seen the recent Coronation Street storyline involving Theo and Todd. While difficult to watch, it shines a vital light on domestic abuse and reminds us that abuse is not defined by gender, sexuality, or appearance. It can happen to anyone.

Domestic abuse isn’t always physical. It can include coercive control, emotional manipulation, isolation, threats, or behaviour designed to undermine someone’s confidence and sense of safety.

Storylines like this can feel confronting, but they also open up conversations that are often hidden or misunderstood.

At Northamptonshire Voice for Victims & Witnesses (Voice Northants), we want people to know: you will be believed, and you are not alone. We support victims of domestic abuse and violence regardless of gender, age, or background. You don't need to have already reported to the police.

If this storyline has brought up feelings for you, or if you recognise elements of your own relationship in what you’ve seen on screen, confidential support is available.

Reaching out can feel daunting, but help is there when you’re ready.

💬 You don’t have to face it on your own.
📍 Support is available across Northamptonshire.
If you’d like to talk or find out more about the support available, please contact Voice Northants.

It’s never ok and there’s never any excuse for domestic abuse or sexual assault. Domestic abuse is any controlling, threatening, violent or abusive act towards you by a family member or intimate partner. Get help, speak out. Call police on 101 or dial 999 in an emergency. You can also contact Voice - a victim support organisation that can provide support and advice, call 0300 303 1965
