Major new anti-domestic abuse campaign launched

Essex Police have released a new video as part of the county's #notodomesticabuse campaign.

The video talks about what life is like for children in a women's refuge.

As a survivor of domestic violence, Hayley Lowles from Chelmsford knows all about the feelings of shame and isolation abusive relationships can bring.

Last month her ex-partner was jailed for her attempted murder, following a horrific attack.

But now Hayley is rebuilding her life, and told ITV News she wants others in abusive relationships to know that they too can come forward and get help.
