National Stalking Awareness Week 2025 runs from 22 to 25 April. This campaign is aimed at raising awareness about stalking and its effects on victims, their families, and communities. 

To increase your understanding of stalking SETDAB have launched a new e-learning package SETDAB Stalking Basic Awareness e-Learning which covers:

• The prevalence and complexities of stalking.

• Legislation and protective orders used to safeguard victims.

• Different types of stalking behaviours.

• Common harmful stalking myths.

• Perpetrator typologies.

• The impact stalking has on victims and those connected to them.

• The risk and link between stalking and the Domestic Homicide Timeline.

It is important to remember even children and young people can be victims of stalking, particularly cyber stalking. There is more information about online safety here.
