Dunelm and the Retail Trust are calling on retail employers to join forces on the Retail Industry Against Domestic Abuse (RIADA) campaign to raise awareness of how the sector can better support employees facing domestic abuse.
The RIADA launch follows reports of soaring call rates to police and domestic abuse helplines, with the Retail Trust now providing more counselling services for retail workers experiencing domestic abuse than ever before.
Statistics from the World Health Organization show that a quarter of women and one in six men will now be affected by domestic abuse in their lives.
