We also know that gambling increases during tournaments, and the links between gambling and both immediate and ongoing domestic abuse are significant.
Men and boys tend to gather during the tournament, which offers an opportunity to target them with a communications campaign about abuse, encouraging men to seek help where needed and to also call out male friends, colleagues, and family members.
We’re asking local businesses, bars, pubs, and other nightlife settings to use beermats that raise awareness of abuse. The beermats will encourage people to change their behaviour, and call out abuse when they see it. Support information for victim-survivors is also available.
To order the campaign beermats and posters, please contact us using the contact details on this page.
