Stop Violence Against Women and Girls

Violence against women and girls (VAWG) happens in every community — including ours. It is often hidden, and it is never acceptable.
Know the Facts
· 1 in 4 women will experience domestic abuse in their lifetime
· Abuse is not always physical — it can be emotional, financial, sexual, or controlling behaviour
· It often forms a pattern of control, not a single incident
· Anyone can be affected — regardless of age, background, or circumstances
Recognise the Signs
Abuse may include someone who:
· Controls who you see, where you go, or how you spend money
· Monitors your phone or social media
· Makes you feel afraid, confused, or “at fault”
· Uses threats, intimidation, or manipulation
If something feels wrong or frightening — trust your instincts. Your feelings are valid
Challenge Harmful Behaviour
· Speak up safely if you witness abusive or controlling behaviour
· Challenge jokes, language, or attitudes that normalise harm
· Support friends, colleagues, or family members without judgement
Take Action
· Check in with someone you’re worried about — a simple “Are you okay?” matters
· Share information about support services
· If someone is in immediate danger, call 999 (press 55 if you cannot speak)
