Next year’s General Election is a once-in-every-five-years opportunity to pave the way for much-needed change by making sure victim-survivors of economic abuse have their voices heard in the democratic process.
It has never been more urgent for victim-survivors to have their say. Economic abuse is devastating the lives of women and their children across the country, and the cost-of-living crisis coming so soon after the global Covid-19 pandemic is only making it harder for them to flee and safely rebuild their lives.
Together, we want to make sure all politicians understand the urgent need for action on economic abuse and commit to changing the lives of victim-survivors whichever party takes the keys to Number 10.
Working hand in hand with victim-survivors, we are working on:
By working together, we will build a movement for change. During this parliament, we successfully campaigned to get economic abuse named and defined in law for the first time and made post-separation abuse a criminal offence.
Together, we can help secure further much-needed changes for victim-survivors so that they can rebuild their lives safely.
