If you are experiencing financial difficulties and have certain responsibilities including bills, mortgages etc we understand this can be a frightening time for you financially.
A lot of utility companies and banks now have specialist domestic abuse teams to assist in situations where you will have limited funds upon separating from an abuser. You should contact each company and let them know you have been the victim of domestic abuse and have limited access to money. You should ask them to explain what help then can give to you.
We have included some useful contacts below for organisations who can help support you.
