Domestic violence: information and resources

[LilyMumsnet]

Word on the street is it's coming home - but sadly, where there's a match, there's potential for domestic violence.

It's been reported that domestic violence cases rise by 38% when England lose - and we want you to know where and how you can seek help, should you need it.

Here's a link to our domestic violence webguide.

If you’re in immediate danger, call 999. If you’re unable to speak to the operator, press 55 to let them know you need help.

We hope everyone has an enjoyable and safe evening.

Lots of love,
MNHQ

Thank you for posting this. If anyone is concerned for a friend or neighbour, please report it and don't assume someone else will.

Can you sticky this?

Thank you for posting this, it's very important and sadly there isn't enough awareness of it

@PickAChew

Can you sticky this?

Stickied in relationships and active.

Thank you @LilyMumsnet

Thank you MNHQ. This has been worrying me - whichever side wins, some bastards will take it out on their families. I hate it.

Could you perhaps tweak the title to include the line "Has your partner been violent after the football?"

(I'm thinking of someone later on who's panicked and might not scan read "domestic violence" in the same way as that.)

Thank you so much for this. It’s a horrible but very real phenomenon.
