Domestic Abuse

If you, or someone you know is suffering domestic abuse, there are many organisations both locally and nationally that can help you. They won't tell you what to do but they will make you aware of your options and then support you in the decisions you make.

There's a free 24-hour National Domestic Violence Helpline which you can phone on 0808 2000 247.

Or you can get in touch with Midlothian Women's Aid. Women's Aid assist women and children who are the victims of domestic abuse and in Midlothian have offices in Dalkeith and Pencuik.
