I was brought up and raised by a dedicated mother, taught morals, kindness and love; it was a woman who suffered #coercivecontrol who helped shape the man I am today.

On #InternationalMensDay I ask men to recognise their role in society and speak out against domestic abuse.
As men we must be active participants in challenging one another to bring down the patriarchy that continues to oppress and abuse women.

We must be help young men growing up recognise and discuss the privileged place in the world they hold and how to better deliver equality.
Men lead the way in suppressing and shutting down women’s voices.

Good men are ones that act to support their voices. Silent support is no support at all. Together we can help platform women’s experiences and challenge ourselves to be better men.

Amazing how people asking me to not forget about male victims forget about my experiences as a result of #maleviolence in my story.
