Domestic Abuse: Victims
(asked on 14th December 2020) - View Source
Question to the Home Office:
What discussions she has had with the Secretary of State for Transport on support for victims of domestic abuse who are travelling to flee their abuser.
This question was answered on 14th December 2020
We have been clear in our communications and guidance that self-isolation restrictions do not apply to those at risk of abuse who need to leave home to seek help or refuge.
To help make this possible, the Department for Transport announced in June new rail to refuge schemes which provide free travel to those seeking refuge from domestic abuse.
