We are delighted to announce that bp has become EIDA's latest Beacon member. You can read more below. 

This week, we highlight the pilot fund announced by the Home Office to support those in financial hardship to flee abusive relationships.  We also include a case study about the challenges of being self-employed whilst dealing with domestic abuse.

We encourage you to share these updates widely with your colleagues.  Please feel free to include any of our materials in your internal newsletters or intranet sites. 

If you have information you'd like us to share to support our network of over 1,200 employers to take effective action on domestic abuse, please contact us at [email protected].
