The High Harm Perpetrator Panel (HHPP) is a multi-agency 'tasking and coordination' group in relation to the most harmful and serial domestic abuse perpetrators, stalking perpetrators, and perpetrators that have repeatedly displayed sexually harmful behaviours.

HHPP targets the perpetrators that cause the most harm to the most victims and children. The overall aim is to protect victims and children from harm by encouraging offender behaviour change and disrupting perpetrator ability to commit further offences.

Who it's for

HHPP is a multi-agency panel that discusses cases of the high risk: domestic abuse, stalking, and sexually harmful (adult) perpetrators.

A multi-agency plan is put in place for each case heard to minimise risk of further abuse, minimise reoffending and robustly manage enforcement. Those deemed to have the highest level of risk are also allocated an offender manager to provide a direct impact on prevention, diversion, intervention and enforcement.
