strong and stable pathway

There is a real need for a clear pathway of support ... with all agencies connecting ... you can see from this linear pathway that my planned weekend of healing and empowerment was for the mid to point B not the early stage of the abuse. The stage at A is confusion and pain and unable to think straight - utter turmoil... and I can see the local council have put together a reach out help webpage but often you are not able to have the energy nor the impetus to be proactive at this stage as you are raw in the changes that are occurring. This may sound crazy but you will also grieve for him gone... you grieve for the better times the time of the love that once was there be it now illusionary and controlling in nature. There are so many emotions and feelings whirling around along with the pain of all that has been done to your whole being.  

I put this slide together last year when I was getting battered with drops in DWP support.  Compounded by not be able to get my State Pension being over 60yrs not not old enough for the new 66yrs criteria... After giving much thought and listening to all the work being done by groups and agencies in the Saving Lives conference it became apparent that there needed communication link ups.  It was also worrying that funding was an issue to keep the continuity... we have had proclamation that monies are available but it is not being seen on the frontline... we need accounts on this surely? 

Some women moving geographically to another part of the country or next county can have breaks in support.   Women that do not attend GP or DWP appointments should not be dismissed as OK or sanctioned.. it is important for a befriending scheme to check on her.... she may be depressed or worse committed suicide. I have on numerous occasions requested to the DWP that files carry and alert on them.. So not to pull out support but keep that support continue but to check on the well being of the woman. 

But I am going to point out .. Women should not be getting out of their homes it should be the perpetrator.... She may feel though that a change of home would be good at some point but she must not lose her home. Many women have been cheated by loss of assets from the home with the violent controllers, some may have had property but have lost it to the perpetrator or in long drawn out legal quarrels from their perpetrators - so she may be getting divorced and out of the relationship but his controlling claws are still affecting her life. Women's voices need to be heard.... 
Help me to help that voice be loud and clear with my petition and my appeal to help women Many thanks Marjorie
