Vernon Coaker Home Office Minister

“This campaign will help men become aware that domestic violence affects them and to take a stand against abuse. It is also an opportunity to launch the Men’s Coalition – a group of organisations and agencies committed to encouraging men to tackle gender-based violence and discrimination, as well as a wider range of men’s issues. This will help those of us in government gain greater understanding of domestic violence and its impact on victims and the wider community.”

Commander Shaun Sawyer Metropolitan Police

“We are delighted to be supporting this campaign once more. The Metropolitan Police Service has dedicated resources and training into tackling domestic violence in London over recent years. Campaigns such as this, will help us drive home the message that violence behind closed doors will not be tolerated.”
