LGBT people experience domestic abuse regardless of age, class, disability, gender identity, caring responsibility, immigration status, race or religion.
Acknowledging that any partner, ex-partner or family member is an abuser is hard. This can be made even harder by threats of 'outing' or through fear of further isolation.
If you identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and are experiencing domestic abuse you can contact our LGBT team through our helpline on 0300 323 9985.
Our LGBT service for survivors of domestic abuse was the first in England.
We also provide one of the few dedicated LGBT refuge and support services, partnering with Manchester and London as part of a Government funded project.
