The workplace, for many, is a place to meet new people and learn new skills. However, for some people it’s also a safe place where they can escape abuse. Look out for the red flags. If something doesn’t feel right, it probably isn’t. Visit: wefindaway.org.uk #EndVAWG

Domestic abuse is a lot more common than people think. It can happen to anyone, and affects all of us. Domestic abuse thrives on isolation, the signs may not always be obvious, but we all have a responsibility to respond. Find out how you can help – wwin.org.uk/wrd-16-days

This behavior is not something girls should ever have to ‘put up with’ – it’s harmful and needs to be addressed. These daily experiences create an environment where girls feel unsafe. Let’s call it out and support girls to feel safe and respected. #16Days #WhiteRibbon #VAWG

This isn’t just a statistic – it’s a reality that too many women face, leaving them feeling fearful, isolated and unsafe in their own community. It’s time to take action, and change starts with men. Every woman deserves to feel safe in public. (UN Women, 2021) #ItStartsWithMen

Starting a new relationship can be an exciting time, however, things may not always be as they seem. Domestic abuse is more common than you think, and it’s important to recognise the red flags for abuse and control. For support Call: 0300 140 0061 Visit: wefindaway.org.uk
