THE charity Crimestoppers is working with Hillingdon Council in appealing for anonymous information from people aware of domestic abuse.

It can be physical, psychological, emotional, sexual or financial abuse - and It affects one in four women and one in six men during their lifetime.

It’s estimated a typical victim endures up to 35 assaults before speaking up and, in some cases, it can result in death.

The Crimestoppers initiative is asking those with concerns in Hillingdon to pass on what they know while remaining 100% anonymous.

Its UK Contact Centre is open 24/7 on freephone 0800 555 111 or you can visit the website, crimestoppers-uk.org

In an emergency, or if you fear someone’s life is in danger, call 999. 

If you're a victim of domestic abuse, support is available. Visit www.hillingdon.gov.uk/abuse
