Not a pleasant subject but as there have been two deaths that I know about in our locality in the last 24 hours…
If you are confined at home with a violent or abusive partner, you MUST leave and seek help. You are allowed to leave the house if this is the case.

Stay safe everyone.
Just to let everyone know that I will be checking this thread regularly… or a Private Message will certainly find me.
I confirm, whole-heartedly… please do not continue to suffer… please make contact with someone who can help…
As someone who suffered from domestic violence in England… Physical, emotional and financial this is extremely important… Thank you for raising the subject… Jen xxxx
I can’t take the credit - it was my daughter who promoted me to post and she was quite right!
Sorry you had to go through that xxx
I posted this in another thread - disgraceful!
It’s worth noting… that it is not always the man who is the “bully”. A woman can be just as awful …
