IRIS Service (Identification and Referral to Improve Safety)

What is domestic abuse?

• Physical -  including being hit, kicked or attacked
• Sexual - having to be sexual when you don’t want to
• Emotional - being called names, put down, made to feel bad or threatened
• Financial - when someone takes or controls your money
• Isolation -  when someone controls who you see and when you go out

We know that domestic violence does damage to health. If you choose to talk to us, we can:

• Support you
• Put you in touch with an advocate who can help you
