[Surviving Economic Abuse @SEAresource]

This time of year, the pressure to spend beyond your means can be overwhelming – especially if you are experiencing economic abuse.

If an abuser forces you to make payments that leave you in debt or builds up debt in your name, find information & support on the SEA website.
