I Am Concerned About Someone

If you are worried about someone who may be experiencing abuse, it’s important to know that your concern can make a significant difference. At HERSANA, we recognise how challenging it can be to take the first step in helping someone you care about.

This page is designed to provide you with resources and information to support your loved one effectively. While our services are tailored specifically for Black women and femmes, we understand that you may be seeking guidance for someone outside our focus group. That’s why we’ve compiled a list of trusted organisations and resources that can offer help, advice, and specialised support for diverse needs and circumstances.

On this page, you’ll find:

• Key signs to recognise abuse and how to approach conversations with care.
  
  
• Contact information for national and local organisations equipped to assist survivors.
  
  
• Guidance on how to report immediate dangers or access urgent support.

Every survivor deserves safety and support, and knowing where to turn is a vital first step. Explore the resources below to learn how you can provide help that empowers and uplifts those in need.
