Support for those assisting survivors of domestic abuse
Find support here:
If the survivor is in immediate danger, call 999 add ask for the police
If they are unable to speak and are calling from a mobile, they can press 55 to be transferred to the police. More guidance is available here: Domestic abuse: how to get help – GOV.UK
Find Local Support:
Visit the Women’s Aid Directory. This will locate a domestic abuse service in their area that can offer direct support. These services can refer directly into the No Woman Turned Away project for women who are survivors of domestic abuse, who have a need for safe accommodation, and who are facing barriers in securing safe accommodation.
