Hairdressers, beauticians and estate agents invited to learn to spot the signs of domestic abuse

As part of the #cutitout campaign, an awareness event in February will give professionals the tools and confidence to know what to do if they suspect a client is in trouble and to know where to safely refer their clients to get help or support.

Professionals who attend the event will be helped to spot the signs of domestic abuse, particularly the more subtle elements of coercion and control.

They will also be given advice on how to support clients, what to say, what to avoid saying, and what other support is available locally and nationally.

The event will take place in Gainsborough on the morning of Thursday February 13, and is open to people across Lincolnshire.
