DOMESTIC VIOLENCE

How to be a lifeline for a friend experiencing domestic abuse (9th February 2009)
The Home Secretary launched a new leaflet with information on how to support a friend or relative who is in a violent relationship. Practical tips in the leaflet include:
  • finding out about the services available so that the person affected can make informed choices
  • agreeing a code word or action so they can let you know if they are in danger
  • making sure you also have the support you need in order to support them.
