This piece from the 'Powerplay' series shows exactly the emotions of both victim and controller. The fear and shock will make visitors think and react to domestic situations. It is important to me however that visitors realise, as I never, how ALL victims are as equal as each other. 40% of Domestic Violence cases are male - putting aside those who will not talk due to fear and humiliation. This has to end.
Women's Aid are a fantastic organisation who provide shelter and support for those coming out of violent relationships who help women find their feet. I only hope there are similar charities for men out there.
This is not a problem we can afford to ignore! Slavery and blatant racism are hopefully things of the past - Violence in relationships happens everyday and deserves recognition as much as any other cause.
