It’s so important to me to cover economic abuse - so I was delighted to have the chance to raise it on the World Service. Insights from UK, USA, South Africa and more. Thanks to @nicolajanesharp.bsky.social and all my contributors, especially ‘Mary’ for sharing her experience so frankly.

This Sunday (7th September) there will be a nationwide Emergency Alert test at 3pm.
For women experiencing #DomesticAbuse, a hidden phone can be a lifeline. The Emergency alert this week will trigger a loud siren noise, even if your phone is on silent.

Before the Domestic Abuse Act 2021, the term #EconomicAbuse was not named or defined in legislation.
Four years later, and six in ten women have heard of it.

Having become an official ‘minder’ for a 4.5 mile stretch of the Monarch’s Way earlier in the year, I was excited to see it featured in this month’s edition of Country Walking with a great write up of its history too 👑

The final report of the Independent Sentencing Review by David Gauke was published on Thursday. Pleased to see:
✅ It recognises that victim-survivors of #EconomicAbuse not only want criminal justice, but also economic justice (referencing research I undertook with Kathryn Royal & Keith Gibson)

Turns out that my 7 year journey as a charity founder was text book. So textbook in fact that I feature as a portrait in Jo Owen’s new handbook for social entrepreneurs which is published today by @bloomsburybooksuk.bsky.social I can’t recommend it more highly.
