With the rise of digital abuse, this year, BCWA want to shine a light on the how perpetrators are increasingly using digital and online technology to monitor, threaten and humiliate their victims. 

"In today's digital age, technology has become an essential part of our lives. Unfortunately, it has also become a tool for abusers to exert control, intimidate, and harm their victims. We must recognise that digital abuse is a serious form of domestic abuse and take urgent action to protect survivors and hold perpetrators accountable. By raising awareness, providing support services, and advocating for policy changes, we can create a safer online environment for everyone." – Constanze Sen, CEO of Bromley & Croydon Women’s Aid.
