Contact Scotland’s Domestic Abuse and Forced Marriage Helpline
If you feel scared of your partner or if you are worried about someone you know, get in touch with Scotland’s 24 hour Domestic Abuse and Forced Marriage Helpline on 0800 027 1234 email helpline@sdafmh.org.uk or visit sdafmh.org.uk. Message the text/WhatsApp service on 07401 288 595
We know it can be hard to pick up the phone. When you call the helpline, your call will be answered by fully trained call handlers who have lots of experience supporting people affected by domestic abuse and forced marriage.
The person who answers the phone will listen to you, support you to talk about your experience and try to find options that help you to keep you and your children safe. They can also help you to find further support, if that is what you want.
All calls are confidential, and if English isn’t your preferred language we can speak to you through a translation service.
We believe you, and we want to support you. We know it isn’t easy, but we’re here for you.

Note – we are working in a hybrid model of working, with staff sometimes working from home and sometimes in the office, so the best way to reach us at the moment is still by email. Communications sent in the post may take longer to be picked up. Please if you intend to visit the office call ahead to check if someone is there.
Call us
Scottish Women’s Aid’s office number is 0131 226 6606. Scottish Women’s Aid does not offer frontline support for domestic abuse but instead advocates for improved response to domestic abuse and supports 30+ local member organisations to deliver frontline services.
