Escape Domestic Violence

Practical Advice, Real Stories, and Hope for a Better Future

Escape Domestic Violence, published by Hodder & Stoughton as part of the This Morning series, was written to provide practical support, guidance, and encouragement for anyone affected by domestic abuse.

Drawing on expert advice, survivor experiences, and clear information about recognising abuse and seeking help, the book offers readers a compassionate and accessible resource during what can be a confusing and difficult time.

About the Book

Domestic violence can affect anyone, regardless of age, background, education, or income. Many people experiencing abuse feel isolated, frightened, and unsure where to turn.

Escape Domestic Violence helps readers to:

  • Recognise the signs of abusive relationships
  • Understand the different forms abuse can take
  • Learn about safety planning and support options
  • Gain confidence to make informed decisions
  • Access information about organisations and services that can help
  • Read inspiring stories of survival and recovery

The book aims to empower readers with knowledge while reminding them that they are not alone.

Why I Wrote This Book

My goal in writing Escape Domestic Violence was to create a guide that combines practical information with genuine understanding and empathy. Too often, people facing abuse struggle to find clear, accessible advice at a time when they need it most.

I wanted to provide a resource that offers both support and hope—helping readers understand their options and recognise that a safer future is possible.

Reader Feedback

The book has been praised for its straightforward, compassionate approach and its ability to explain complex and sensitive issues in a clear and supportive way.
