Can someone advise please?

I fled DV, and was relocated hundreds of miles away.

He doesn't even know the county we're in, thank fuck!

Today I was told by the police that there would be NFA against him. There's not enough evidence. He's claiming self defence (I've never hurt anyone in my life) and the whole thing has folded.

Where do I stand now?

Can I still keep my location a secret and my kids safe?

Are you married, are they his children, do you have any joint accounts or responsibilities? Your question is too vague.

Can you call the police or women's aid for advise. Keep safe. Flowers

They're his children.

No joint accounts.

We have been married 13 years.

I contacted the police when I found out he'd hurt my child. I wound up telling them what he'd done to me too.
A DV charity is already involved- I'm in refuge atm.

Happy to answer any other questions. I'm sorry I was so vague.

This is my other thread. I hope it makes things a little clearer. I'm sorry I'm so vague. I was trying not to write an essay.

What do the DV charity advise?

Now I must stress I don't know the legal position. But I have a friend whose ex is very violent. She has "done the right thing" and gone through court for access arrangements etc, police etc - he was convicted of a serious assault on her (and has a number of other DV convictions against other women). He is aggrieved and will not leave her alone, will stop at nothing to find her wherever she goes and can always track her down. She's trying to find a way to go somewhere he can't find them - for various reasons it will involve leaving their home country for good.

If you have a chance to stay where he can't find you then stay there and keep your family safe.

Speak to the staff and it might be worth asking about their mobile phone policy if you have one.
