What is Domestic Abuse?

Domestic Abuse can be perpetrated by partners or ex partners and can include physical abuse (assault and physical attack involving a range of behaviour), sexual abuse (acts which degrade and humiliate and are perpetrated against their will, including rape) and mental and emotional abuse (such as threats, verbal abuse, racial abuse and withholding money) and other types of controlling behaviour such as isolation from family and friends. It can be characterised by a pattern of coercive control often escalating in frequency and severity over time.
