🔎 Transparency Note

The statistics shown in Domestic Violence: The Impact on Our Community are drawn from the latest verified data available (2023–24) from the Crime Statistics Agency Victoria, the Australian Bureau of Statistics, the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare, and the eSafety Commissioner.

Official domestic violence and technology‑facilitated abuse figures are usually released with a delay of 6–12 months to allow for verification. Cornish IT and Security Services commits to updating our community impact reporting as soon as 2025 data is published by these agencies.

✨ We believe transparency builds trust. Our mission is to protect survivors and empower communities with accurate, responsible information.
