New helpline for victims of abuse

A new helpline has been launched for military personnel and their families from all three Services who have suffered domestic abuse, sexual violence or stalking.

The free and confidential service, which covers the UK and overseas, is run by Aurora New Dawn.

It will operate five days a week between 9am and 3pm on 0333 091 2527. There will be Whatsapp availability from 9am to 3pm on Tuesdays, 5pm to 8pm on Wednesdays and Thursdays and 10am to 2pm on Sundays.

The charity has been providing safety, support and advocacy to victims since 2011 through services including one-to-one help and training and education programmes. It already has a dedicated service for Army and Royal Navy personnel and their families aged 16 and over, regardless of whether they have made a report to police.
