We recognize that domestic abuse can affect anyone, regardless of age, gender, or background. It includes physical, emotional, sexual, financial, and psychological abuse, and often takes place behind closed doors, making it difficult to detect.

At St Peter & St Paul's church, we are committed to raising awareness of domestic abuse and supporting anyone who may be affected. If you or someone you know is experiencing abuse, please know that you're not alone—and help is available.

We encourage anyone with concerns to speak up. You can contact our parish safeguarding officer or the safeguarding team directly or reach out to one of the specialist support services listed below:-
