For women, I know there are women's refuges and Women's Aid. Is there any support available for men? A friend of mine, a very kind, gentle man, is trapped in a relationship that is verbally abusive. He has repeatedly tried to leave and been pressured to stay. I won't go into any further details, as they could be outing, but would be grateful for any info I could pass on to my friend.
I have suggested therapy and he is considering it, but it's obviously an expense and involves finding a good therapist, so if there are any organisations that provide relevant support it would be great to know about them.
