Here at Care First 24 Ltd our Domestic Violence Champion, Jayne comments.......“Domestic violence can affect anyone, male or female from any background. I am passionate about supporting others who need support. It is a subject people often find very difficult to speak about or seek help for. Although in the past few years, there has been a lot more awareness, and the police are taking it more seriously, however, we still have a long way to go.” #togetherwecanendviolence #nomoreweek2024 #SAYNO #SayNoMore #nomore #domesticviolenceawareness
