Hey 👋🏼 and thank you for accepting me into the group! I’m Candice, a Mum to two girls, in the UK. I’m a survivor of domestic abuse and I’m on a mission to make a change. Unfortunately here in the UK DV isn’t taken as seriously as it should be. From my own experience, my situation could have been completely avoided if I was listened to. But I wasn’t. In my community my aim is to support other victims and survivors, encourage them to come forward, make sure they’re heard and make a difference in the rising statistics of DV. I’ve shared my story openly, despite still going through my situation after fleeing some time ago. I’m here to support, guide and make sure people like me are heard far and wide 🫶🏻

@Glenn Stevens thank you! It’s sad to know that it’s the same where you are. Hopefully I can learn some things from this community 🙏🏼
