Challenging myths about LGBT people and domestic abuse

NDVF has recently finished a piece of work with Outburst youth group to create a short film on myths surrounding LGBT people and domestic violence.  This film is now complete and appears on NDVF’s site for young people on the new page specifically on LGBT young people and domestic violence.

Watch the film here: http://www.respectnotfear.co.uk/youngpeople/162-young-people-lgbt.html

The whole site is appropriate for any young person who is lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender though this page has some specific additional information, as well as the film.  If you have any feedback please feel free to contact us and let us know.  Alternatively please feel free to forward the link to your contacts.

This page is part of a set of NDVF resources designed to improve awareness of domestic violence to the LGBT community, increase reporting and access to services – other resources include:

  • Leaflets on same sex abuse – detailing services and referral points.
  • Posters on same sex abuse – detailing services and referral points.
  • Information on the NDVF website and the Respect Not Fear website.
  • Referral Flowcharts for professionals.
