I Need Support

Safe in Sussex is committed to helping women affected by domestic abuse across West Sussex regardless of ethnicity, religion, sexuality or age.

We all deserve to be treated with respect and to live our lives without fear. There is no excuse for domestic abuse

I didn’t realise it was abuse, I just thought it was normal… I realise now it wasn’t my fault.
