📢 Domestic abuse is affecting more people than ever.

New figures reported by the BBC, based on data from the Office for National Statistics, highlight a significant increase in adults experiencing domestic abuse.

Behind every statistic is a person who deserves to feel safe, supported and able to rebuild their life.

At Haven, we believe everyone deserves a future free from abuse 💜

If you or someone you know needs support, please reach out. You are not alone.

An survey from the Office for National Statistics shows an increase of adults in England and Wales who have experienced domestic abuse.

We would like to say a heartfelt thank you to Lincolnshire Rural Housing Association for their continued support of Haven Domestic Abuse Service and their commitment to helping survivors of domestic abuse rebuild their lives.

We are absolutely delighted that Lincolnshire Rural Housing Association has committed to sponsoring a room at our refuge for the next three years! 🏡💜

Their generosity will help us continue providing a safe place for survivors and their families when they need it most. We are also incredibly grateful for their wider commitment to raising awareness of domestic abuse, supporting staff to recognise the signs, and exploring opportunities to work together to help survivors access safe accommodation and rebuild their futures.

Partnerships like this make a real difference. By working together, local organisations and businesses can help ensure that survivors have somewhere safe to turn when they need it most.

✨ Could your business make a difference too?

We are inviting other businesses and organisations to join us in making a lasting impact by sponsoring a room at one of our refuges. Your support can help us provide safe spaces, hope and a fresh start for people escaping domestic abuse.

💜 Did you realise we don't just support those experiencing domestic abuse, we also support friends and family members too..

Domestic abuse doesn’t only affect the person experiencing it. It can also have a huge impact on their friends, family members, colleagues and the people around them.

If you’re worried about someone you care about, you might not know what to say, what to do or how best to support them. You don’t have to have all the answers.

At Haven Domestic Abuse Service, we offer confidential advice, guidance and support to friends and family members who are concerned about someone experiencing domestic abuse.

We can help you with:

🔹 Understanding domestic abuse and recognising warning signs
🔹 Advice on how to safely support someone
🔹 Safety planning
🔹 Information about local and national support services
🔹 Signposting to specialist services
🔹 Emotional support for you, too

Whether you’re worried about a partner, family member, friend, colleague or neighbour, our team is here to listen and help you understand the options available. Sometimes, simply being there, listening without judgement and letting someone know they’re not alone can make a huge difference.
