Domestic abuse affects an estimated 2.3 million adults in England and Wales each year and cuts across every community and workplace. It is far more than physical violence — the Domestic Abuse Act 2021 recognises emotional, psychological, economic and coercive-controlling behaviour too. This course explains what domestic abuse is and the many forms it takes, who it affects, and the reality behind the statistics.
It then builds the understanding to respond: recognising coercive control and the signs and impact of abuse, the barriers that make it hard for people to leave or disclose, and how to respond safely and supportively when someone discloses. It covers reporting, the vital links to safeguarding, and the support available. It is an awareness-level course for employers, HR, care and health staff, and anyone who may encounter someone experiencing abuse — helping them respond with sensitivity and point people to help.
