📌Domestic Abuse Awareness Month📌Women’s Aid have guidance on 5 things we can all do to Come Together to End Domestic Abuse:1. Make a change where you are – workplace, school, sports club – is there a domestic abuse policy? Is there a poster in the bathroom or in communal spaces on how to get help? Has anyone had domestic abuse training? 2. Dispel myths about domestic abuse and challenge sexism – domestic abuse doesn’t happen because you provoked them, and it isn’t your fault if you are being abused by your partner – sexist attitudes to women’s roles and men’s role must be challenged to end domestic abuse. 3. Take action, your voice counts – join campaigns for better protection for survivors or fundraise to enable us to make a change. You can put on an event or take part in a challenge. 4. Learn what to say to someone experiencing abuse – understand the reasons why it may not be easy to just leave. 5. Speak Up – show we are standing up against domestic abuse together, send @womens_aid photos and stories about what you are doing in your local area or online to help stop domestic abuse and support survivors. Showing positive examples of how we can make a difference helps encourage others to stand up and join in the effort to support survivors.#EndAbuseTogether #domesticabuseawareness #childrenandfamilies #BHA #BerwickshireHousing #ScottishBorders ...
