We welcome Dr Nicola Sharp-Jeffs to explore the subject of economic abuse, coercive control and domestic abuse.

The purpose of the seminar is to provide delegates with information about economic abuse within the context of domestic abuse.  It will have the following core aims: 

• Enable delegates to recognise economic abuse within the context of domestic abuse 
• Provide an insight into the nature and scope of economic abuse, including as a form of coercive control 
• Improve understanding of the impact of economic abuse on survivors of domestic abuse 
• Provide some good practice guidance, signposting information and resources for delegates to use when supporting survivors of domestic abuse experiencing economic abuse 

Economic abuse is designed to reinforce or create economic instability. In this way it limits women’s choices and ability to access safety. Lack of access to economic resources can result in women staying with abusive men for longer and experiencing more harm as a result.” Surviving Economic Abuse’.
