Male domestic abuse is a serious issue that often goes unrecognised and unreported. Understanding its complexities is crucial for providing effective support and raising awareness.
Male domestic abuse is a significant yet often overlooked issue. Many men face stereotypes and societal expectations that make it difficult for them to seek help.
This lack of recognition leads to underreporting and inadequate support services. At Thrive Network, we aim to challenge these stereotypes and provide a safe, supportive environment for male victims to receive the help they need.
At Thrive Network, we are committed to raising awareness and providing the necessary support to address this critical problem.
According to the Office for National Statistics, an estimated 695,000 men in the UK experienced domestic abuse in the year ending March 2020. This highlights the significant need for support services tailored to male victims.
A survey by the Mankind Initiative found that 1 in 3 victims of domestic abuse is male. Despite this, male victims are often overlooked and under-supported.
Between 2018 and 2020, there was a 49% increase in calls to helplines from male victims of domestic abuse, illustrating a growing awareness and willingness to seek help among men.
