About the Issue
Domestic violence affects hundreds of thousands of families in the UK. Comic Relief has been supporting women experiencing domestic abuse for many years now and we have recently focused our attention on the affects of domestic abuse on children. Growing up in a household where domestic violence takes place leaves children feeling incredibly frightened and withdrawn from their friends as they struggle to keep secret what is happening to them at home.
