“Domestic abuse comes in many forms. As well as physical harm, it can include emotional or sexual abuse, control of finances or other controlling behaviour and while the majority of victims are women, it can happen to anyone, regardless of gender and social status.
“I’d urge anyone who may be a victim or knows someone who is to please reach out and contact us. Every report will be taken extremely seriously, and we will listen and support you throughout the process.”
