Today is National Pharmacy Day!

We wanted to say a heartfelt thank you to @bootsuk, @morrisons, @medicaregroup Pharmacy Group (NI) independent pharmacists and pharmacies who have adopted Safe Spaces. [1/3]

[UK SAYS NO MORE @UKSAYSNOMORE]

Your commitment - past, present, and future - has helped create moments of safety, support, and hope for victim-survivors. Thank you for the vital role you play in helping to end domestic abuse and sexual violence. [2/3]

[UK SAYS NO MORE @UKSAYSNOMORE]

Over the festive break, many banks + pharmacies facilitating #SafeSpaces might be closed. We want you to know that support is still available.

This campaign reminds us that awareness must lead to action: listening, believing, supporting, and challenging harmful norms every day - not just for 16 days.

A massive thank you to everyone that took part! Let’s keep the momentum going. [3/3]

✊As #16DaysofActivism draws to a close we want to reflect on the campaign as we highlighted the link between pets & #DomesticAbuse. We were able to:

· raise awareness
· share stories
· hold Lunch & Learns
· share facts and resources
· amplify the voices of survivors [1/3]

[UK SAYS NO MORE @UKSAYSNOMORE]

Here are just a few of the fantastic organisations that offer support, resources and raise awareness of the link between pets and domestic abuse... [2/3]

🐕Ruby’s Law calls for urgent change so pets are included in protection orders - keeping animals safe helps keep people safe too. Read Sarah's story 👉🏽 https://t.co/k4UENJn4oo #16DaysOfActivism

[UK SAYS NO MORE @UKSAYSNOMORE]

🏡 In homes with domestic abuse, pets are harmed or threatened in up to 89% of cases, often to control or intimidate victims.

Gaps in family law in England and Wales mean abusers can still use pets to coerce survivors, forcing impossible choices between safety and their pets’.

[UK SAYS NO MORE @UKSAYSNOMORE]

We're partnering with the @TheLinksGroup, an organisation raising awareness about the link between the abuse of people and animals through collaboration, research, training and advocacy 👉🏽https://t.co/f3JY778Fl1 [4/4]

[UK SAYS NO MORE @UKSAYSNOMORE]

🟧During #16DaysOfActivism, we’re highlighting a form of coercive control: pets used as weapons.

In too many cases, abusers exploit the emotional bond with animals to manipulate, threaten, or punish survivors. [1/4]

[UK SAYS NO MORE @UKSAYSNOMORE]

If you or someone you know is being harmed - or if a pet's safety feels at risk - support is available. [3/4]

[UK SAYS NO MORE @UKSAYSNOMORE]

We hope that we can commit to building a system where survivors and the animals they love can escape heal and rebuild together.
