Do you feel confused, scared, lonely or worried at home?

Domestic Abuse is the term used to describe frightening and controlling behaviour within a family.
Most families have times when people disagree, argue and fall out, but they usually talk it through and sort out their differences. Sometimes though, if someone is being constantly argumentative and abusive it can feel very frightening. You may feel you have no-one to talk to. Our ‘Children and Young People’ workers can meet with you to discuss issues that are happening in your home, your school, with family or with friends.
