For this episode, I spoke about domestic violence, solutions to domestic violence and gender with Rachel Horman-Brown who is a Solicitor and Head of the Domestic Violence & Forced Marriage Department at Watson Ramsbottom Solicitors. This is not the cheeriest of subjects I realise but it is one of the most important, so I urge everyone to listen or watch the whole conversation as I’m sure there will be something that you’ll take away from it. If you are a victim of domestic violence or abuse and need to access help, I’ve linked some charities below who can help, please don’t try to rationalise harmful behaviour. Domestic violence must never be tolerated.
