Up and down the UK, people are staying within the safety of their own homes to stop the spread of the coronavirus. But for people experiencing domestic abuse, home is often not a safe haven, but a high risk, unsafe environment.

Donna is one of Glows refuge managers: For anyone experiencing abuse in the home, this is an extremely vulnerable time for their emotional, mental and physical safety.

The added strain of financial pressures, job uncertainty, lack of household resources, increased childcare responsibilities and social isolation will heighten already high-risk circumstances.

Domestic abuse is known to happen mostly behind closed doors and at present, nearly everyone is behind closed doors.

For many, the small window of relief they might have got while they or their abusers were working or socialising has now gone.

The need for properly funded services for anyone experiencing domestic abuse is greater than ever, and we need your help to keep our vital services running.

£15 could pay for an hour of specialist domestic abuse support

£25 could pay for an essential food voucher for a family experiencing abuse

£35 could fund a mobile phone for us to keep in contact with a victim at risk or experiencing abuse

£175 could keep a refuge place open for a family for a week
