Are you someone facing violence at home in the #Covid lockdown? Do you know someone who might be suffering from it right now? Have you heard about this issue and wondered how you could help?
As cases of #domesticviolence have risen sharply during the lockdown, we spoke to experts from the field. Watch this video to hear practical actions and steps we can all take to control the abuse. Domestic violence cuts across identities of age, gender, sexuality, class and caste, so please share this video widely so it can reach someone out there who might need it!
