We are delighted to welcome Gareth Jones as an EIDA Ambassador. Our Ambassadors are a diverse group of victim-survivors of domestic abuse, who now use their lived experience to raise awareness and help others. Their voices form the heart of EIDA’s work, and we are grateful for their engagement and support.
Gareth Jones has spoken publicly about his experience of coercive control, physical abuse, and economic abuse at the hands of his ex-partner. You can read more about Gareth’s experience here.
‘As a recent male survivor of domestic abuse following a high-profile case against my ex-partner, the overwhelming outpouring of support from the public has made me realise just how many people are impacted by domestic abuse. I have witnessed the pivotal role employers with the right tools can play in supporting employees, their families and colleagues that are impacted by abuse. I am proud to have joined EIDA as an Ambassador and hope that through sharing my experience, I can support others.’ – Gareth Jones
