“It’s crucial for us to come together to raise awareness of domestic abuse. From educating children through to training YSL staff, it’s vital everyone has an understanding of abuse so abuse is recognised, more survivors can be supported and we can end Intimate Partner Violence.”
Farah Nazeer CEO Women’s Aid Federation

About Women's Aid

In the UK, YSL Beauty developed ABUSE IS NOT LOVE in partnership with Women’s Aid. The partnership is grounded on two strategic projects:

1) focusing on youth prevention and education on domestic violence and

2) through the Safer Futures project which includes the Expect Respect Toolkit, providing schools with age appropriate resources and tools to help understand what domestic abuse is.
