National statistics tell us that one in three women and one in seven men will experience domestic abuse within their lives. Police recorded 1,500,369 domestic abuse related crimes in the year ending March 2022.

Listen to Nikki and Helen from the Central Bedfordshire Domestic Abuse team talk to Clare Edwards, Independent Domestic Abuse Advisor (IDVA) at Victim Support, about how people can support their friends and family members who they know are experiencing domestic abuse.

If you require a written transcript of the podcast, this is available at the Bedfordshire Domestic Abuse Partnership (BDAP) website.
