Domestic Abuse does not always have to be physical, sometimes victims may not even be aware it is happening.
It can include any behaviour used by an offender to obtain control or power over another, and we recognise that emotional abuse can be just as harmful as physical violence.
If you have been a victim of or affected by Domestic Abuse, support is available through the following services:
Redcar and Cleveland, Stockton and Hartlepool
