POLICE


Domestic Abuse Codeword Scheme As lockdown begins to lift in the coming months and we start to interact with each other more, please look out for your friends, neighbours and family members.


If you believe that you or someone else could be a victim of domestic abuse, there are signs that you can look out for including:


• being withdrawn, or being isolated from family and friends


• having bruises, burns or bite marks


• having finances controlled, or not being given enough to buy food or pay bills


• not being allowed to leave the house, or stopped from going to college or work


• having your internet or social media use monitored, or someone else reading your texts, emails or letters


• being repeatedly belittled, put down or told you are worthless


• being pressured into sex


• being told that abuse is your fault, or that you’re overreacting


Safe Spaces are available in pharmacies across the UK. Once you are inside, all the specialist domestic abuse support information will be available for you to access. Some Safe Spaces are also prepared to respond to the Ask for ANI codeword, to provide victims with a discreet way to access help calling the police on 999 or specialist support services. If a pharmacy has Ask for ANI and Safe Spaces information on display, it means they’re ready to help.


Available in all Boots, Superdrug and Morrisons as well as many independent pharmacies. Find your Safe Space: https://uksaysnomore.org/safespaces/
