Free train travel for those fleeing domestic abuse - in place NOW.

Posted here for traffic rather than the relationship board.
It was shared by Faiza Shaheen (ran against Sir Duncan-Smith), so I'm assuming it's legit.

I know I should have posted on the Relationship board perhaps, but I just wanted more people to see it. I happened to overhear a conversation in a hospital setting between professionals (Monday this week) that domestic violence is going out of control.

From today, people fleeing domestic abuse anywhere in Britain during the coronavirus lockdown can apply for free train travel to refuge accommodation, through a partnership between train companies and Women’s Aid.

That’s really useful to know and share.

I noticed someone on Facebook saying if you are in an abusive relationship, message me asking if I still sell makeup and I’ll be there to support you. If you need me to call the police ask about eyeshadows.

I thought that was sweet too.
