Commissioner sets out new victims’ strategy


Or are you descended from the hundreds of lineages from all over the world that are found in the DNA of the British? All of us on these islands are immigrants, descendants


.both of pioneers who repopulated the North after the end of the last ice age and also much more recent


arrivals. BritainsDNA can answer an age-old question - it can tell you where you come from.


Lancashire’s Police and Crime Commissioner has described how he wants to put victims and witnesses “at the heart” of services in the county- and ensure their needs are being met by the services on offer. Clive Grunshaw has pub­

lished a new victims’ strategy, which outlines his propos­ als to transform the services available in the county when he takes on responsibility for commissioning them from next year. And the Commission­


er said this responsibility presents an “exciting oppor­ tunity” to ensure Lancashire offers the best possible care and support for victims and witnesses. Mr Grunshaw said: “The


key thing for me is that vic­ tims’ services in Lancashire have victims’ needs at the heart of them. “I want victims to feel in­


volved in the criminal justice process, to be kept up-to-date ■ on their case, and to be treated with dignity at all stages of the process. “Their needs have to be


recognised so they can be effectively supported what­

ever happens. It is vitally im­ portant to me we have services in Lancashire that are able to do that. “I have put a lot ofwork in­


to developing a strategy which outlines exactly what I want the services I commission to achieve, and have consult­ ed with victims and existing providers to identify what the best services should look like. “Now, in Lancashire; we


have a unique opportunity to ensure we are providing those services to our residents.” The strategy sets out the


Commissioner’s 10 aims and objectives for commissioning victims’ services, which have been influenced by the con­ sultations which have taken place,incIudingJanuary’svic- tims’ and witnesses’ consulta­ tion event.


The overarching aim of the


strategy is to ensure the sup­ port is put in place to prevent people becoming repeat vic­


tims, protect victims from further harm and help them to better cope and recove.r following a crime. And it will ensure services


are not commissioned in iso­ lation, but that organisations


work together to ensure con­


sistent delivery of support for victims county wide. TheCommissioneradded:


“I am a firm believer.in part­ nership work, and I believe I am in a unique position to bring organisations from


across Lancashire together to ensure our residents receive the best possible services. “Now, work will begin to


ensure we commission serv­ ices that will achieve what I - and victims in Lancashire -w an t and need them to. I am very confident the level of work which has been put into developing this strategy, and my ongoing commitment to delivering effective services, will ensure that happens.” The Commissioner will be


responsible for commission­ ing victims’ services from April, 2015, although some services, such as those to sup­ port the families of homicide victims, will remain nationally funded. The full victims’ strategy

Ribble Valley MP Nigel Evans has vowedhis utmost support for the Send All My Friends to School campaign, which aims to provide primary education for all children across the globe. . After receiving several


requests for help from pupils at St James’s Primary School,, Clitheroe, and Longridge High School, among others, Mr Evans has urged even fur­ ther progress to be made in


the campaign. He is calling for the 180 countries involved with the creation of the Mil­ lennium Development Goals in 2000 to provide learning fa­ cilities for the last 57 million children without primary ed­ ucation. Speaking from the Ribble


Valley, Mr Evans praised the children who wrote to him for theircommitmenttosupport- ingthis campaign. He said: “I am delighted


with the amount of effort and support shown by these pu­ pils to raise awareness for the Send All My Friends to School campaign. “I sincerely believe that the


Global Campaign for Educa­ tion and the Government need to look seriously at this issue again in order to provide all children with an education regardless of gender, disabil­ ity or language spoken,” he added
