Neighbour possibly in a DV situation...

This is a total WWYD moment.

Male neighbour overheard screaming at his girlfriend last night, very aggressively and that "you can't go out... because I said so"

He's been previously overheard talking to a visitor (we have small gardens) that she isn't allowed out at all. I assumed at the time it had been heard wrong.

I don't know them at all, but I shared a midwife with her and she had a baby in April a month before me (I only know this because the midwife commented she had been next door that morning and could have saved me a trip for my 36 week check up). So I have no way to just check she's ok without it looking pretty obvious I heard him by knocking at their door.

I'm worried she's not ok, but don't know how to approach the situation or if I should at all.

I considered phoning the health visitor as we should share the same one in theory and see if they could just ring for a catch up or something.

Should I do anything?

Call the HV tomorrow morning

I would call the HV and just alert them to it, I'm sure they'll be well versed on how to handle it sensitively.

It could be nothing, in which case no harm done. It could be something in which case you might help.

Thanks both.

I'll do that first thing in the morning
