There's a strong link between #vawg and suicide. @PoliceChiefs reported on the high number of suspected suicides linked to domestic abuse earlier this year - and our own data shows survivors desperately need support for their mental health needs, too.

This #MHAW week I visited @womanstrust who offer life-saving services of counselling and peer support for domestic abuse survivors.
With a suspected abuse related suicide every 4 days, more funding is needed to address mental health impacts of DA.

We welcomed @LDNVictimsComm Claire Waxman OBE, this #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek to hear how survivors of domestic abuse are suffering in silence, without vital life-changing support for their mental health. We need to do more to support victims to prevent suicides #WomansTrust
This #MHAW, @BBCLondonNews will be highlighting the life-saving work of @womanstrust and the profound impact of domestic abuse on mental health. Watch BBC Politics London tomorrow at 10am, as I call on Government to ensure victims can easily access these critical services.
Thank you @womanstrust for welcoming me today. So inspiring to hear from women who have become ‘thrivers’ and ‘warriors’ thanks to the mental health support they received after experiencing domestic abuse.
Thank you to the @CommissionerDA for speaking at our event today. And a huge thank you to our clients for sharing their experience of recovery from #domesticabuse

@AUnabashedly now on: 'The Angleou service and the art I created as a result of the support, reminded me that I was so much more than my experience of abuse. Sometimes we have to fall so that we can renew and grow again differently.' #WholeVAWGServices#DomesticAbuse
@AUnabashedly 'If any survivors are listening: Reach for the support. Contact Angelou. When you experience #DomesticAbuse sometimes you feel there's no space where people understand. But I went to Advance Charity and @WomensTrust and my life totally changed.' #WholeVAWGServices
