West Mids Police reassure victims of domestic violence amid coronavirus outbreak

West Midlands Police are leading a campaign to help victims of domestic violence during the coronavirus outbreak.

The #NoExcuseForAbuse campaign aims to reassure people that services available for victims of domestic abuse will continue despite the coronavirus pandemic.

Throughout the campaign, digital adverts will be on show at over 20 supermarkets across the West Midlands.

There are concerns that the lockdown has resulted in more people suffering at home.

The West Midlands Police and Crime Commissioner says there are a range of services available across the region to help those who are victims.

Senior officials have come out in support of the Midlands-led campaign.
