"It's just so shocking. One in four women in Ireland who have been in a relationship have been abused by a current or former partner. 41% of Irish women know someone in their circle of family or friends who have experienced intimate partner violence. 6% of Irish women have experienced sexual violence and 31% of women have experienced psychological violence by a current or former partner since age 15 12% of Irish respondents in the study had experienced stalking (including cyber-stalking). Since 1996, 267 women have died violently in the Republic of Ireland (up to August 2024). Of the women that were killed: 63% were killed in their own homes. 55% were killed by a partner or ex (of the resolved cases) Almost 9 in 10 women knew their killer All info gathered from https://www.womensaid.ie/ They are there to offer help to any woman who is experiencing abuse. Call 1800 341 900 It's a 24hr national freephone number. " For balance, men who are suffering from domestic abuse should refer to mensaid.ie or contact the National Confidential Helpline on 01 554 3811, it's not 24 hours I believe but I assume there's an answering service etc and there are support services available. | |||

Ireland has a dire history (much v recent history) of abuse of women. Unfortunately we all know someone who is abused and we all know an abuser . Until we are fully open and men stand up and be fully honest and openly admit we, asba group, need to make those of us who are abusers know they wont he supported the problem will live on. Men need to police men . Everyone needs ti know the numbers for thier local womens refuge and where possible support them financially . It is time Ireland Spoke up! | |||
