We know that violence in the home can increase dramatically at such times and with Euro 2012 just around the corner, residents suffering domestic abuse are being asked to speak out. We want everyone to enjoy the tournament and that includes ensuring people are free of the fear of violence. Domestic abuse is a serious crime and nobody should have to put up with it. Nationally, domestic abuse is a crime that is widely underreported and Worcestershire is no exception. Domestic abuse is not an inevitable part of life, but many men, women and children are understandably worried about what could happen if they speak out. However, the support available could make their lives so much better. Residents can report abuse in confidence by contacting their local police station, or in an emergency by phoning 999. For confidential information, support and advice, they can phone the free 24 hour helpline 0800 980 3331 or visit www.worcestershire.gov.uk/wfada. For further information about the Worcestershire Forum Against Domestic Abuse, please contact Ros Walker on 01905 822357. We need your quotes, stories and photos about the local area, as many as possible. We will also be displaying the project in the Walshes Community Centre for the enjoyment of everyone.If you would like to take part in the project, please send your information to Julia Whale, Walshes Community Partnership, Community House, Stourport Road, Kidderminster, Worcs, DY11 7QE or call me on 01562 732345 and I can arrange a visit.
