A scheme to prevent men and women suffering from domestic violence has been successfully used within its first six months in Notts.

The force introduced Clare’s Law – the Domestic Violence Disclosure Scheme pilot – in September 2012 to run for 12 months.

It allows police to tell people about their partner’s violent past in situations where it could help protect them.
