If you feel you need immediate support in addition to making a referral to join counselling or group support, they encourage you to contact the 24/7 Domestic and Sexual Abuse Helpline on 0808 802 1414, [email protected] or via live chat at dsahelpline.org. Anyone else impacted by abusive relationships/domestic abuse can also access support via this Helpline.
