A conference held by Surrey Police has highlighted the help available for those trapped in controlling and coercive relationships.

The Force’s campaign entitled “Our relationship is give and take” encourages victims, family and professionals to recognise the signs of psychological and emotional abuse, and to have the confidence to come forward.

If you or someone you know is trapped in a controlling relationship you can call Surrey’s Domestic Abuse helpline on 01483 776822. If an emergency, dial 999.
