Rule of Thumb: Sarah and Paul discuss Domestic Abuse

Content warning: This podcast contains references to domestic abuse from the outset which some may find distressing.

Sarah and Paul discuss domestic abuse, including victim-survivor experience, trauma responses and social work practice. Domestic abuse is a sensitive, complex and sadly all too common aspect of social work practice. As with all episodes our intention is to create informative discussions as well as informal conversations.
