Become a member of the SEA Captains Circle and partner with us on a voyage to pioneer new approaches to supporting survivors.
A commitment of at least £3,000 per year (£5,000 for organisations) will help fund SEA’s continued efforts to raise awareness of economic abuse and transform responses to it.
Economic abuse is a form of coercive behaviour. It involves the control of a current or former partner’s finances as well as the things that money can buy. Bit by bit, the victim’s ability to make their own choices and be in control of their own lives is taken away. It often occurs in the context of intimate partner violence and is a form of domestic abuse.
One in six women in the UK has experienced economic abuse. The effects can last a lifetime, with victims never free from the abuser’s control – left in debt, without access to money or a home. Tragically, many feel they have no choice but to take their own life.
