Recognising domestic abuse in later life

The Look. Listen. Be aware campaign aims to raise awareness of domestic abuse in older adults. As practitioners who build trusted relationships with the people you support, you may be the first to notice when something doesn’t feel right. You can support the campaign by using the SETDAB resources and sharing ECC’s social media posts to help ensure older people and their friends and family know where to find help.
