Family crimes happen far too often. The UK government estimates that some 2.5m people experience bullying of some kind, every year.
And at least one-third of that number are MEN. That’s more than three-quarters of a million MALE victims of domestic mistreatment!
Family abuse of men is particularly difficult to solve because the survivors are often reluctant to come forward because of outmoded cultural barriers.
They may feel constrained by toxic masculinity; that “real men” are “strong” and don’t show their feelings. Or there might be social taboos that prevent them from sharing family “secrets” with other people.
Find-A-Friend was inspired by fellow survivors of family abuse to support men to break through these outmoded social bonds and rebuild their lives.
