Help and support for male victims of domestic violence

Domestic violence affects men too - Talk it over!

The Men's Advice Line is a confidential helpline for male victims of domestic violence and abuse.

We welcome calls from all men - in heterosexual or same-sex relationships.

The Men's Advice Line offers emotional support, practical advice and information on a wide range of services for further help and support.

Our focus is to increase the safety of men experiencing domestic violence (and the safety of their children) and reduce the risk.

Get in touch

Call us on freephone number 0808 801 0327 - free from landlines and mobile phones. We are open:
