'Women across the country on Saturday were for the first time given the “right to know” if their partner has a violent past as Clare’s Law was rolled out nationally.
The scheme is named after Clare Wood, 36, who was strangled and set on fire by her ex-boyfriend George Appleton at her home in Salford, Greater Manchester.
Coinciding with International Women’s Day, Clare's Law is being introduced to police forces across England and Wales following a successful pilot scheme.'
Fantastic news, and could save the lives of many women.
