Ethics approval and consent to participate
: The NHS London-Camden and Islington, North East Research Ethics Committee’s Chair constituted that our observational study was an evaluation of services, not requiring ethics approval from a fully constituted committee. This study used only anonymised data, arising from the usual care of women so individual consent of women was not required.
: Not applicable
: AH and MJ were DVA IRIS advocate educators, at the time of original IRIS trial, and are now both funded to facilitate IRIS dissemination in the UK, with MJ the CEO of IRISi, a national, health-focused DVA social enterprise. Positive trial findings would support their career development. GF is a non-executive IRISi board member. All other authors declare that they have no competing interests.
