My sister in law is being physically and mentally abused by her partner.

Is there anything I or the family can do to help her? She is scared to leave him but she wants to.

All advice and help welcome. Thank you.

Hi @sleepismysuperpower1 He is always around her so she wouldn't ever be able to phone anyone.

We are all so worried about her but we can't do anything to help her in fear of making the situation worse and putting her in even more danger.

You can phone Women's Aid on her behalf and make plans to just get her out of there. If she will come.

could you invite her over for a 'women's night' and then let her phone there?

i pressed send too soon.what i meant was, you could use the womens night as an excuse and when she is the safety of your home, you could get her to call. if this isn't possible, then i would do as the previous poster said and call for her
