As the Men's FIFA World Cup approaches, let's talk about it.. ⚽

Major sporting events are often moments of excitement and celebration for many. However, research consistently shows that they can also coincide with an increase in domestic abuse. We understand that football does not cause domestic abuse but it is important to highlight that it can act as a trigger point for abuse to escalate.

You are not alone. If you, or someone you know, is affected by domestic abuse please reach out for support.
