Peterborough Women's Aid - ECRC Partner Charity

The ECRC is really excited to announce that it will be working Peterborough Women’s Aid (PWA) as its partner charity and the beneficiary of its Referral Scheme over the next 12 months.

 

PWA is the only specialist domestic abuse service in Peterborough and provides safe and stable refuge accommodation for women and children fleeing high risk domestic abuse, potentially at risk of homicide.  The refuge provides essential provision for up to eight families where we can offer our specialist, holistic model of support.

 

PWA runs a number of specialist community services.  We have an advice line, webchat and group work service for survivors who are living in the community.  PWA facilitates the Own My Life Programme online and in person. We work in HMP Peterborough with female residents delivering awareness and empowering sessions.   We run a weekly group session in Peterborough raising awareness about abuse, and also focussing on self-esteem, confidence and prevention.

The Ipswich & Suffolk Tech Network

We are a group of tech professionals with a variety of specialisms who have come together because we want Suffolk and the East Region to be at the heart of the UK’s digital and technological community. We feel that anything and everything we can do to help achieve this is a good use of our time, and this work has already started! 

​

We represent Suffolk's community and educational tech focussed groups. With one easy to use calendar you can see what's available each month. Most groups offer free meetups, some online and some in real life!  At the ISTN we bring advanced education, bridging the skills gap for all learners. With our community approach we try to bring everyone together to build a stronger community, giving our talented people a platform to find their place in industry.

Eastern Cross-sector Safety and Security Communications (CSSC)

The Cross-sector Safety and Security Communications (CSSC) Eastern Region project began in early 2014 and represents a partnership between the public and private sectors in the six counties of the Eastern Region of England (Norfolk, Suffolk, Cambridgeshire, Bedfordshire, Hertfordshire and Essex).

​

CSSC Eastern Region has support from key public and private sector partners across the region including the Police, Local Resilience Forums, Environment Agency, Home Office and National Crime Agency.  Now fully operational with over 30 industry sectors, each of which is headed by one or more Industry Sector Leads (ISLs), many of whom have national/international reach within their industries.

​

In the event of a major incident that is likely to have wide-reaching impact across the Eastern region, our partnership with the police, transport bodies and government ensures that we can deliver “one single truth” information via ISLs for onward distribution to their networks, so that businesses can make informed, appropriate decisions if necessary.

Cyber East

Cyber East is an industry body that works alongside the UK Government to develop the cyber security industry in the UK.

 

Our aim is to partner with cyber security businesses in the East of England and provide a platform for collaboration and growth within the Cyber Security industry.

​

Alongside this we focus on providing support to local businesses who need to increase their cyber security knowledge and need support & signposting. In order to share knowledge, skills, and capabilities across the region we are actively building a network of partnerships with a range of organisations working across academia, research, training and innovation in the Cyber industry.

​

As an integral part of the UK’s cyber ecosystem, our mission is to help businesses become more resilient against cybercrime and attract inward investment in the East Anglia area.

Eastern Fraud Forum.png
The Eastern Fraud Forum

The Eastern Fraud Forum (EFF) has been set up to increase the resilience of regional organisations – in both the private and public sectors – to the threats posed by fraud. Run as a collaboration between professional advisors, industry members, the Police and other governmental agencies, the objective of the Forum is simple: to promote fraud awareness, to allow members to understand how best to mitigate against the risks involved, and to increase knowledge of how to respond effectively to fraud if and when it occurs.
