PCC and Deputy show domestic abuse the red card ahead of England's first World Cup match
As England begin their World Cup campaign, Nottinghamshire Police and Crime Commissioner Gary Godden and Deputy PCC Angela Kandola are reminding people that support is available for anyone affected by domestic abuse.
Major sporting tournaments can bring communities together, but sadly national research shows incidents of domestic abuse can increase during and after high-profile matches, particularly when England lose.
Domestic abuse is never acceptable, whatever the score.
If you are experiencing domestic abuse, or are worried about someone you know, help and support is available across Nottinghamshire through specialist services.
In an emergency, always call 999.
