Glasgow Women's Aid

Some of the language used in the media and on online platforms recently has been especially stigmatising and potentially harmful. With so many sources of information, it can be difficult to know which are true. These are some of the common myths we’ve been seeing:

So it seems men who HARM WOMEN are still handed the mic. 🎤 ❓Why is there a double standard? Is violence against women less serious? We need to stop hypocrisy. #chrisbrown #BreezyBowlXX #chrisbowntour #hypocrisy #kneecap #domesticabuse

Irish language rappers @KNEECAPCEOL have been dropped from TRNSMT and were called out by the politicians...YET Chris Brown is performing in Glasgow despite a long and violent history! He is currently on bail charged with an alleged violent offence in a London night club.

Cancel Culture? Some rules don't apply... We have seen a lot of discussion around artists who have been blacklisted or dropped from festivals over the last few weeks...

If we are lucky enough to raise more than we need, every penny goes back into providing support to women and children experiencing domestic abuse. Pls RT! 🔁

Every summer we take women & children affected by domestic abuse on a special day out. We can't use public transport, so need to hire a bus – our biggest cost. 🚐 🔗justgiving.com/campaign/bairn… #fundraising #bairnsonthebus #charity #giving #domesticabuse

Happy Blue Monday! 💙 But is it really as blue as they say? You’ve probably heard that today (the third Monday in January) is “the most depressing day of the year.” But here’s the truth: Blue Monday is a myth! live with depression…

We must hold abusers accountable and provide real support for victims. If you or someone you know is experiencing abuse, reach out: 📱Glasgow Women’s Aid: 9.30am-4.30pm, 30 Bell Street ☎️ Samaritans: 116 123 (24/7) #kiena #kienadawes #domesticabuse #suicide #violence #vawg

Today, her abuser, Ryan Wellings, was found guilty of assault and prolonged abuse but not guilty of unlawful killing. Kiena’s story highlights systemic failures to protect victims. Abuse isn’t just harmful—it’s deadly.

On 22 July 2022, 23-year-old Kiena Dawes tragically took her own life after enduring domestic abuse. She left behind a 9-month-old daughter.
