Domestic abuse can affect anyone, regardless of gender, sexuality, age, disability, religion or ethnicity. It can include psychological, emotional, sexual, financial and physical abuse.
Domestic abuse often takes place behind closed doors and between partners or family members.
Domestic abuse doesn't always involve physical violence. It can be sexual, financial or emotional. Any behaviour or pattern of behaviour that is controlling, coercive, threatening or violent is abusive.
Help is available - don't suffer in silence.
