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 👑

Realised during Covid what we’d been missing out on. Just back from glamping in Norfolk. The weather just keeps getting better and there’s nothing like long walks with your dog and then a glass of wine and a nice meal at a countryside pub!

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.

For a long time, we didn’t talk about #EconomicAbuse because it was seen as a form of psychological abuse - because it nearly always give rise to emotional harm.

The #FinancialAbuse Code published by UK Finance is reviewed on a regular basis to ensure it keeps pace with increased understanding of victim- survivors’ needs as well as regulatory expectations. Publication of the 3rd iteration this week reflects how far we have come in a short space of time.

The Treasury Committee published its report into the acceptance of cash today. Great to see particular concern expressed in paragraphs 44-49 for victim-survivors of #EconomicAbuse since, for many, having access to and being able to use cash continues to be a lifeline.
