A domestic violence charity says new figures, showing a big rise in the number of convictions for attacks against women and girls, is 'just the tip of the iceberg'.

The comments from Refuge come after the Crown Prosecution Service revealed 91-thousand people have been prosecuted in the last year - up from 75-thousand four years ago ... while the number found guilty was the highest on
record.

The CPS says it's due to better training and understanding of victims.
