Domestic Abuse Related Death Reviews (DARDR)
A Domestic Abuse Related Death Review (DARDR) is a multi-agency review carried out when a person has died as a result of domestic abuse, either by homicide (murder) or suicide.
It was previously known as a Domestic Homicide Review (DHR).
The purpose of a DARDR is to understand whether lessons can be learned from the way local organisations and professionals worked with the victim. It also makes recommendations to prevent future deaths.
These reviews follow Home Office guidance on Domestic homicide reviews: statutory guidance – GOV.UK.
DARDRs were established on a statutory basis under Section 9 of the Domestic Violence, Crime and Victims Act (2004) – Legislation.gov.uk.
The Safer Woking Partnership has responsibility for the reviews. It is required to publish a final report with a set of recommendations, an overview report and executive summary, following agreement from the Home Office Quality Assurance Panel.
