BAME Women
Violence against women afffects women from all ethnic groups, and there is no evidence to suggest that women from some ethnic or cultural communities are any more at risk than others.
However, the form the abuse takes may vary; in some communities, for example, domestic abuse may be perpetrated by extended family members, or it may include forced marriage.
Women from Black, Asian or minority ethnic communities may have their experiences compounded by racism which is pervasive and institutional in the UK.
Our team understand the intersectional issues faced by survivors from Black, Asian and ethnic minority communities and we have specialist within our team who can help with specific issues like FGM, so called 'honour' based violence and force marriage.
