Desperate to leave a domestic abuse situation. The police are apathetic, send a male policeman to me and advise me and the children to just get up and leave whenever the perpetrator is around say that mental, financial & emotional abuse does not rise to the level of criminality and not worthy of a report. Furthermore, no local authority will help or refer me to any agency that can as no physical violence has taken place. YET!

One child is just about to sit for her exams and dreams of being a biologist and the other has aspirations of joining the Royal Navy. Please help make that happen.
