Not sure what domestic abuse is? In this article, we answer the frequently asked questions and give you signs to look out for in your relationship, as well as how and where to find support if you need it.
Domestic abuse is a deeply isolating experience. Those who endure it often carry the weight of their trauma in silence, hidden behind smiles and quiet demeanour. This silence is not a choice but a survival mechanism, a way to navigate a world that may not understand the depths of their suffering.
We are always on the lookout for caring and supportive people to join us. Please consider using your skills to assist us in our mission for a safer, more supportive world.
As we help others, we need help too. As a registered charity, we are reliant on funding and support in order to be able to continue providing the vital services we do.
Whether you’re an individual, or part of a business or community, there are loads of ways that you can get involved and help to raise funds that support our vital work at Freeva.
Donations help us to continue offering our life-changing services. No contribution is too small to help those in need.
In the blog, we cover how HR professionals can support colleagues who report experiencing domestic abuse, including how to effectively support a victim or survivor of domestic violence, as well as information about our tailored training programs.
