Every 30 Seconds: Domestic Abuse Is Everyone’s Business

Every 30 seconds, the police receive a call related to domestic abuse. With 2.3 million people affected last year in England and Wales, the impact stretches far beyond the home — affecting families, communities, and workplaces. This seminar, led by FearFree, explores why domestic abuse is not just a personal issue but a workplace one, with clear links to productivity, wellbeing, and staff retention. FearFree uses a trauma-informed approach, and this session will introduce this practice and highlight how adopting this approach can benefit not only those experiencing abuse but the wider community. Join us to understand the critical role businesses and individuals play in creating safer, more compassionate environments.
