Links Between Major Sporting Events and Domestic Abuse Dear LinkedIn community, As excitement brews around the Euro's and Englands win on Saturday, it's crucial to address a sobering reality! Domestic abuse incidents can surge by up to 38% during these times. Factors like increased alcohol consumption, heightened emotions, cultural norms, and financial stress contribute to this concerning trend. Raising awareness through public campaigns, ensuring support services, promoting community engagement, and strengthening policies are vital steps to combat domestic abuse. Let's champion for a safer environment for all, on and off the field. For further insights, check out my blog post #domesticabuseawareness #domesticabuse #euros #england
At a recent Enterprise Vision Awards event I was speaking to one of of the other finalists, a solicitor who specialises in domestic abuse and sexual assault cases. I wasn't as shocked to learn of the rise in domestic abuse when teams lose, as I was to learn that the number also significantly rises when they win as well. Quite rightly the solicitor pointed out that the reasons for the domestic abuse lie with abuser and an excuse of football is just that, an excuse, so no matter the outcome for the team, the rise is significant.
I’m very aware of this being the case. I often worry when we don’t win and things so wrong! It really in a National Concern!! 🙁
