24 Hour Domestic Violence Help-line

On Monday 20th November, EVAW published an ICM poll that showed that;

- 42% of young people (16-20) know girls whose boyfriends have hit them and

- 40% of young people know girls who have been coerced or pressurised to have sex

Worryingly, 59% of young people feel they do not have enough information and support to deal with these issues. EVAW is calling for the Government to ensure that these issues are addressed in the school curriculum as part of a broader strategy to end violence against women.
