Domestic abuse covers a wide range of areas such as physical, psychological, emotional, sexual or financial. One in four women and one in six men are affected at some point during their lifetime. It is estimated that a typical victim endures up to 35 assaults before speaking up, and in some cases, it can result in death. Often the children who are living in households are the unseen victims, who carry this trauma throughout their lives.
We are appealing to those who are victims of abuse to reach out for help and support from the many organisations that are available in London.
