In September 2021, she was appointed to co-ordinate action across the service to tackle violence against women and girls (VAWG), following a wave of concerns sparked by the murder of Sarah Everard by a serving Metropolitan police officer. DCC Blyth, who joined Hampshire police in 2016 as a ‘direct entry’ superintendent after a career in probation, youth justice and public protection, says Sarah’s killing was a “watershed moment”. She has developed a strategy to ensure VAWG is made a priority and victims get a consistently high standard across the 43 forces in England and Wales.
