Day 15 of 16 Days Against Gender Based Violence - 09.12.22

On #Day15 lets look at how abuse affects children. The #DomesticAbuse #Act 2021 recognises children as victims of abuse in their own right.

Domestic violence and abuse has a devastating impact on children and young people that can last into adulthood. Domestic abuse services offer specialist emotional and practical support for children and young people affected by domestic abuse.

👉One in seven (14.2%) children and young people under the age of 18 will have lived with domestic abuse at some point in their childhood

👉61.7% of women in refuge on the Day to Count 2017 had children (aged under 18) with them (Women’s Aid, 2018 – data from Women’s Aid Annual Survey 2017)

Subject to eligibility, children and young people may be able to access support via our partnership with @_relatecoventryandwarwickshire into the #Wish programme. Please call the #SafeToTalk #Helpline on 08001114998 or call 02476444077 for further information.

We also provide specialist programmes for mum's and children in refuge delivered by our fully trained Children's workers.
