Violence against women and girls in England and Wales is a “national emergency”, British police warn in a new report.
Every day, the police have to deal with nearly 3,000 violent crimes against women and girls. Between 2022-2023, more than one million violent crimes against women and girls were registered by the police, who at the same time warn that the number of people in the dark is high.
Crimes against children who have been sexually abused have also increased. Between 2013 and 2022, sexual assaults increased by 435 percent – from just over 20,000 to almost 107,000 reported crimes per year.
The perpetrators are getting younger and the average age of a suspect is now 15 years.
The UK Home Office declared last February that violence against women and girls is a national threat to public security in the country.
