It was a privilege to give evidence on #economicabuse at @scotparl.bsky.social. What an honour to represent all of the incredible women who have shared their experiences with me to help raise awareness & demand change.
Our economic abuse lead, #DrJennGlinski, presented evidence at Scottish Parliament's Social Justice and Social Security Committee last week on financial considerations when leaving an abusive partner and the impact of #economicabuse.

Huge thank you to Foysol Choudhury MBE MSP for helping us at Scottish Women's Aid to raise awareness of #domesticabuse in #Scotland.
Foysol reminds everyone that just because #16DaysofAction is over, domestic abuse is a year-round issue that requires urgent action.

Domestic abuse is a year round problem - Foysol Choudhury
Domestic abuse is a year-round crisis. While the UN 16 Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence campaign last year raised vital awareness, the fight does not end when the campaign does.

It's been 30 years since the landmark Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action to achieve gender equality and secure the rights of women & girls. ♀️
Despite some progress over the last 3 decades, we are still decades away from achieving gender equality. ⚖️

“Great news! We have a joint mortgage.”
That one text changed everything for Sarah. What followed was years of economic abuse, a gruelling legal battle, and a fight to regain control of her home and finances.

My boyfriend coerced me into a joint mortgage and ruined my life
That text, confirming that I was no longer in sole control of my finances (or my life), felt like a dagger to my heart.

Support workers & researchers have long highlighted that abusive (ex)partners use the tax system to exploit victim-survivors. No person should be held responsible for their (ex) partner's tax debt. This case is from Australia, but it could just as easily be from the UK.

Abusers often use the festive season to further coerce victim-survivors into debt.
If you are being forced to make transactions that push you into debt or if debts are fraudulently built up in your name, this is known as coerced debt.
