Would you spot abuse? - The Parliamentary Information Office of the Parliamentary Yearbook is currently gathering news items for major features on diversity in the next edition. Equalities Minister, Lynne Featherstone today launched a powerful advertising campaign to challenge the attitudes of teenagers to violence and abuse in relationships. With 75 per cent of girls and 50 per cent of boys reporting that they have experienced some form of emotional abuse, the TV, cinema, outdoor and online advertising campaign helps teenagers recognise abusive behaviour at an early stage, before it escalates to physical violence. The adverts point young people to the 'This is abuse' campaign website(Opens in a new window) where they can find information, seek help and chat with their peers. The site is designed to encourage sharing of the campaign materials across social networks and will also host live web chats with experts.
