West Midlands Police today (8 June) launches its awareness campaign against domestic abuse as the first match of Euro 2012 kicks off in Poland.

The campaign forms part of Operation Coy the force's Euro 2012 operation which also targets known troublemakers attempting to travel abroad to matches and alcohol-related violence, disorder and anti-social behaviour back on home turf.

The domestic abuse aspect of the campaign is designed to tackle concerns regarding a potential rise in reports of domestic abuse during the football tournament.

Officers who specialise in investigating and supporting victims of domestic abuse will be on duty across the region to deal with incidents also visiting known offenders to make it clear that they face a swift and robust response from police if they are violent and abusive to family members.

Domestic abuse rose by more than 1300 reported incidents during the 2010 World Cup, compared to the previous tournament in 2006.

The 2006 World Cup tournament saw domestic abuse related calls to police forces nationally increase by an average of 25 per cent on England match days.

Police are reminding the public that the abuse can affect anyone male or female and victims are encouraged to come forward and seek support as many attacks still go unreported.

Posters and leaflets, produced in conjunction with Birmingham Community Safety Partnership, will send out clear messages to fans and their families watching matches at licensed premises throughout the West Midlands that domestic abuse is always unacceptable.
