"The Independent understands Labour MP Jess Asato has been drafted in as a Violence Against Women and Girls (VAWG) adviser to the Department of Health and Social Care, just days after Refuge branded the chancellor's Budget a profound disappointment to survivors. Ms Asato has been put in charge of steering a major overhaul of the NHS response to VAWG, having been tasked with reforming the culture of the health service and ensuring women experiencing violence are identified and supported at the earliest opportunity."
Journalism covering reproductive rights, climate change and Big Tech requires journalists on the ground and financial support to send reporters to both sides of political stories. Donations can finance reporting while keeping content free and accessible instead of behind paywalls, with funding prioritized from those able to afford it. A new adviser has been appointed to overhaul the NHS response to violence against women and girls amid fears the flagship target of halving VAWG will be missed. Labour MP Jess Asato will steer cultural reform across the health service, improve identification and early support for survivors, examine alcohol links, embed services in neighbourhood health centres, and enhance local commissioning of VAWG services.
