flag Cumbria Police launch Operation Vigilant with patrols and real-time support to combat rising violence against women and girls during the holidays.

flag Cumbria Police have launched Operation Vigilant to reduce violence against women and girls during the festive season, a period marked by increased risks due to alcohol, social gatherings, and domestic tensions. flag The force is deploying targeted foot patrols in both uniform and plain clothes to prevent crime, while urging the public to plan nights out safely. flag A key change is the integration of Independent Domestic Abuse Advisers into the police control room, enabling immediate support for survivors—cutting wait times from 48 hours to real time. flag Officers now receive case-specific guidance before responding. flag Police encourage reporting abuse even without immediate legal action, with emergencies handled via 999 and non-urgent matters through 101.
