Domestic abuse can impact on many people’s lives, with up to 1 in 4 women and 1 in 6 men being affected at some point in their life. It’s sometimes called ‘hidden crime’ as it is thought that only 1 in 5 incidents are reported to the police, often because victims are too fearful, they rarely even tell family and friends.
If you are a victim, witness, concerned about someone or worried about your own behaviour – speak out and help to reduce domestic abuse.
