Tackling gender-based violence against men and boys
Data from Greater Manchester Police shows that one in five recorded offences of rape and sexual assault in the year ending June 2024 involved male victims.
We want to change that. Which is why Greater Manchester is the first city-region in the UK to launch a dedicated plan for tackling gender-based violence against men and boys.
The plan sets out how Greater Manchester will tackle domestic abuse and sexual assault and harassment towards men and boys, raise awareness of support services and reporting mechanisms, and expand training for professionals.
