One in five UK adults has experienced economic abuse by a current or former partner. While over a third didn’t tell anyone at the time, those who did were most likely to confide in family and friends.
We want everyone to understand what economic abuse is, how to recognise it in the context of domestic violence, and what they can do to support victim-survivors.
Our specialist team is made up of experts who can provide support to frontline professionals in relation to complex domestic abuse cases linked to debt, banking and housing. Please get in touch via [email protected].
SEA can help victim-survivors facing money and debt concerns, particularly coerced debt. Learn more about our financial support line and other projects and services below.

SEA has been a member of the ‘National Housing and Domestic Abuse Policy and Practice Group’ led by the Domestic Abuse Housing Alliance (DAHA) since it was established in November 2017.
We also run a specialist housing advice service that includes information and guidance in complex housing cases, with a particular focus on survivors who own their home. Learn more by clicking the link below.
SEA offers bespoke training on economic abuse. We have trained a wide variety of professionals, from customer support staff at banks and building societies to domestic abuse champions in the police force.
In addition to the courses below, other courses are available on request to meet the needs of different sectors, including criminal justice, housing, banks and domestic abuse services.
