Together we are louder.
I am an author and advocate for women in abusive relationships, using my own experiences of domestic abuse as a catalyst to bring awareness and to help others. I have published two publications, Isolation Junction and Clipped Wings which have both been Amazon Best Sellers and received awards. I speak at events across the UK and continue to raise awareness through my blog posts, public speaking, television and radio interviews and social influence.
