offer practical support, such as accompanying the person to the police station.

Share the gender-based violence number, 0800 428 428, so that they can call to get help.

Gender-Based Violence is 'any act of gender-based violence that results in, or is likely to result in, physical, sexual or psychological harm or suffering to women. This includes threats of violence, coercion or arbitrary deprivation of liberty, whether occurring in public or private.
