How does Operation Encompass work?

ONE PUNCH CAN KILL After we receive a report of abuse from a home where children were present or usually reside, brief information will be shared with the school directly from Lincolnshire Police. This information will be handled by the school’s Designated Safeguarding Lead. This ensures support can be provided as quickly as possible so the child involved can feel safe and listened to.

Each Designated Safeguarding Lead has been fully trained. They are able to ensure the right support is made available to the child following the disclosure of a domestic abuse incident.

By knowing that the child has had this experience, OnePunchUK the school is in a better position to be supportive and understanding of the child’s needs and possible As part of our ongoing work to reduce violent behaviours. crime, Lincolnshire Police is working with registered charity OnePunchUK to raise awareness of the Please see our advice section for further details on devastation that a one punch assault can have on Operation Encompass. the victim and their families.

OnePunchUK was founded by Maxine Thompson- Curl whose son Kristian was tragically killed following a one punch attack while on a night in Consett, County Durham.

Kristian, aged 19, was in a coma for more than a week and survived for 10 months but died in 2011.

Following her son’s tragic death, Maxine has been raising awareness about the dangers of one punch attacks through her campaign Punched Out Cold Campaign working alongside the police.

Maxine said:

"One punch awareness campaigns are so important as they help us to get our message out.

“We spend all year trying to make people aware of how important it is not to use our hands as weapons and to stop, think and walk away.

“One punch assaults can and do cause devastation to victims, their families, friends, and also to the person who throws the punch. It is life changing in a very negative way. “This devastation can be prevented by trying to be in control of your emotions, especially whilst under the influence of alcohol. Please be responsible for your actions at all times. “Let’s stop this needless devastation. Stop think and walk away.”

OnePunchUK is happy to talk to any families that have been impacted by a one punch assault.
