Does your GP practice understand?

10th January 2025

We are undertaking research to better understand access to and experience of GP practices for people who have experienced or are experiencing domestic abuse. They would like to hear from people who have accessed support through their GP practice, or who have found there are barriers to sharing their experiences with GP practices and therefore to getting appropriate support.

 

The findings will help inform future service development and enhance training requirements.

 

If you would like to share your experience, please complete our online survey https://www.smartsurvey.co.uk/s/3SO2LM/. Before you complete the survey, please check Women’s Aids information to learn more about the risks of completing a survey online if you have experienced or are experiencing domestic abuse.

 

For each completed survey, a donation of £5 will be made, up to the value of £200, to the Surrey Domestic Abuse Partnership.

 

If you currently need support, please visit the Surrey Domestic Abuse Partnership website. Further information can also be found on the Healthy Surrey website: Surrey Against Domestic Abuse | Healthy Surrey.
