Domestic Violence

Domestic violence includes many different types of behaviour not only physical violence, such as hitting and pushing around, but also non physical violence in the form of bullying, intimidating and threatening a partner, or forcing a partner to have sex against their wishes.

Domestic violence is usually experienced by women, but men to can be the victims of violence at home. All domestic violence is against the law.
