Study finds low awareness of domestic abuse realities

A new YouGov survey on behalf of Refuge reveals that while 57% of UK adults recognize women are often at risk at home, 85% still believe homes are safe spaces. Despite over two million women experiencing domestic abuse in the year leading to March 2025, awareness of issues like technology-facilitated abuse remains low, with 42% of adults unaware of it. Refuge emphasizes the urgent need for funding to support victims and raise awareness about the hidden dangers of domestic abuse.
