Domestic abuse

End the fear

Threatened with domestic violence? Don't be a new year statistic.

Unfortunately domestic violence and abuse can increase at this time of the year. And that's on top of chilling statistics like:

  • 125 women's deaths a year
  • 25 men's deaths a year
  • 15% of all violent crime
  • victims are assaulted 35 times before calling the police

Don't become another statistic. If you, or someone you know, is threatened by domestic violence:

  • see the Manchester End the Fear website for immediate help
  • phone 999 if you are in immediate danger
  • contact us for advice: email: asbprevention@parkwaygreen.co.uk. If possible, leave contact details that are safe for us to use. We'll contact you from Friday 2 January 2009
