Domestic abuse and violence

Home is widely considered as the safest place to be for many,  however this is far from reality for victims of domestic abuse. Home can be a dangerous place because an abuser can use any tool to exert power and control, including a national health pandemic, such as COVID-19.

Our Domestic Abuse and Violence Team will continue to work with the families that we’re supporting during this difficult period.

Below are our contact details along with some other useful links and numbers.
