A representative from DMBC said:
“It’s great to see so many organisations across our borough coming together and getting out and about in our towns to raise awareness of these serious issues and I would encourage people to go along to them.”
“The aim is to educate and inform, as well as to listen to people if they have concerns about any of the issues or signpost them to the appropriate support.
“We should not be afraid to talk about these difficult issues and awareness roadshows such as these are vital to help keep people safe.”
