NHS Domestic Abuse Awareness Day

💙 NHS Domestic Abuse Awareness Day 💙

Today, we join colleagues across the NHS in raising awareness of domestic abuse – a reality that affects people in every community, including our patients, our friends, and our staff.

Domestic abuse can be physical, emotional, psychological, financial, or controlling. It isn’t always visible, but its impact is always profound.

At the NHS, we are committed to creating safe spaces, listening without judgment, and ensuring anyone experiencing abuse knows:
You are seen. You are believed. You deserve safety.

If you or someone you know is experiencing domestic abuse, support is available:

📞 National Domestic Abuse Helpline for Women: 0808 2000 247

📞 National Domestic Abuse Helpline for Men: 0808 8010 327 
📱 In an emergency, call 999
🫶 Ask for help—healthcare professionals are here to support you confidentially and compassionately.

Let’s stand together, raise awareness, and help break the cycle of abuse.
