Welcome to Rotherham - Domestic abuse

In Rotherham, domestic abuse is defined as any violence which takes place within a personal or family relationship. It can include physical, emotional, sexual, violent or financial abuse, or the threat of such abuse.

We believe that every one has the right to live their life free without being subjected to, or threatened to be subjected to, any form abuse from a partner or family member.

If you experiencing abuse within your personal relationship or family home, there are agencies in Rotherham that give you advice and support you and any children that you may have to feel safe.
