Devon County Council do not hold this information.
The following information from our commissioned provider however, may be of interest to you:
- Our Devon Service does not operate waiting lists.
- We do have an initial wait for the first response following referral.
- During this period, this ranged from 2 working days to 10 working days for first contact.
- There was a secondary wait for full risk assessments to take place if a DASH (Domestic Abuse, Stalking, Harassment and Honour-Based Violence Risk Assessment) had not been supplied.
* Please also provide a list of charities or organisations currently commissioned by your council.

If you are not the local authority who commissions these services in your area, please could you provide me with the relevant local authority so that I can contact them instead.
