Family Early Help

Conflict or Violence in the Home

Conflict or Violence in the Home

This section contains information about support with domestic violence, harmful parental conflict, emergency accommodation and many more sources of advice and information for families experiencing violence or conflict

IMPORTANT: If you are at risk of injury or harm in your home, you can leave the house. The government guidance is clear that you can do this and that the social distancing regulations do not apply if you need to leave the home to escape risk of injury or harm.
