DARDRs take place when a death, including a suicide, of a person aged 16 or over has, or appears to have, resulted from violence, abuse or neglect by:
a) a relative
b) a household member or
c) someone the person had been in an intimate relationship with.
The purpose of a DARDR is to review the circumstances leading to the death, to consider where responses can be improved in the future and to identify any best practice to share across local services in the hope that harm can be prevented to others.
