​​We recognise that domestic abuse is not just a "women’s issue." It is a human issue. Men can be, and are, victims of coercive control, physical violence, and emotional abuse. Too often, male survivors suffer in silence due to outdated societal expectations or the fear that they won't be taken seriously. We are here to change that. Whether you are experiencing abuse from a female or male partner, or a family member, you deserve a safe space to heal. ​ The Facts: You Are Not Alone The latest data from the Office for National Statistics (ONS) highlights the scale of this issue in England and Wales: 1 in 15 men experienced domestic abuse in the last year alone (approx. 1.5 million men). 1 in 5 men will experience domestic abuse in their lifetime. 40% of all domestic abuse victims are male, yet men are significantly less likely to tell anyone or seek professional help. 99% of men who call specialist helplines report experiencing psychological and emotional abuse, including coercive control. ​ Breaking the Silence We understand the unique barriers men face when seeking support, including: The "Mask" of Strength: The pressure to "man up" or handle things alone. Fear of Disbelief: Worrying that professionals or friends will laugh or blame you. Concern for Children: Fearing that leaving or reporting will mean losing access to your children. Isolation: Feeling like there are no services designed specifically with your needs in mind. ​ How We Help Our services for men are trauma-informed, confidential, and non-judgemental. We provide a space where your experience is validated, and your safety is the priority. One-to-One Support: Safe sessions to discuss your situation and plan your next steps. Recovery Groups: Connecting with other men who have shared similar experiences to break the cycle of isolation.
