The Silent Struggle: Male Survivors Losing Vital Support

In this episode of the H.J. Talks About Abuse podcast, Alan Collins and Hannah Hodson delve into the distressing news of Safeline, the only helpline dedicated to male survivors of abuse in England and Wales, facing imminent closure. The podcast highlights the critical role Safeline played in providing support and understanding to over 2,000 men and boys, amidst the stigma surrounding male vulnerability and abuse. The episode raises awareness of the funding crisis affecting survivor support organisations and explores the broader implications on mental health and the justice system.
