Victim Support yet to see increase in calls for help
A charity offering support to victims expects the number of calls about domestic abuse will increase once the coronavirus lockdown ends.
The Manx police have reported a 145% increase in domestic abuse, but Victim Support Isle of Man says it hasn't seen a rise in people seeking help.
This month marks the organisation's 21st anniversary on the Island.
Manager Paula Gelling believes the current Covid-19 measures may mean some are unable to ask for help at the moment:
