CWU letter to Union Branches (LTB592/12) issued by Dave Joyce CWU National Health, Safety & Environment Officer & lead on the ‘Bite-Back campaign advises all of the union’s branches of the release of version 6 of the CWU Report Booklet "Children and People Injured and Killed in Dog Attacks". The contents of the report include graphic images of Dog Attack victims injuries including very young children and people are warned before reading it. The report breaks down into the following the sections:
Contributions have been made by Gareth Pritchard Assistant Chief Constable of North Wales Police and the Association of Chief Police Officers (ACPO) lead on dangerous dogs plus Gavin Grant, Chief Executive of the RSPCA, both of whom support the CWU 'Bite-Back' Campaign. Version 6 contains new sections on Postal Workers attacked and Police Officers Attacked. Sadly a further 8 reports on attacks on children are also added. Key facts and figures are quoted in the report and the CWU 'Bite-Back' Campaign objectives. In the LTB Dave comments on the format of the report: “The hard hitting, and graphic report was designed to bring home to people the scale of the current problem and the results of irresponsible dog ownership in the UK plus the urgency of the need for positive, radical government action. In that regard it has been very effective.” A hard copy of the report can be obtained on request from the Health, Safety & Environment Department, or it can be downloaded from the E-Library Database by selecting category ‘Dangerous Dogs’.
