A Roscommon frontline service for victims of domestic violence and abuse saw a 13 percent increase in new clients last year.
Roscommon Safe Link is a non-profit charitable organisation that offers information, support and counselling to women and men suffering abuse.
The service's 2024 annual report has shown a 13 percent increase in new clients, a 5 percent increase in continuing clients and 17 percent increase in the number of outreach clinics conducted.
Project Manager Anne Carey has been paying tribute to those who came forward over the last year and urged the public to help spread awareness of the role of the organisation.
She's been speaking to Daniel Considine about the service, it's plans for 2025 and what forms domestic violence can take day to day.
