This course will equip you with the knowledge to recognise signs of abuse, respond effectively, and provide support to victims. By the end of the course, you’ll be empowered to contribute to reducing domestic violence, whether in a personal, professional, or community setting.
The Need for Awareness is Real
- 1 in 4 women and 1 in 6 men will experience domestic violence at some point in their lives.
- Domestic abuse accounts for 16% of all violent crimes in the UK.
- 75% of victims of domestic abuse suffer physical and psychological consequences.
The Domestic Abuse Act 2021 strengthens legal protections and sets out clear definitions of domestic abuse, including psychological and economic abuse, but without awareness of these protections, who will help victims get the support they have a right to?
