Have a strategy when you leave a violent partner / family member
If you live in a dangerous or destructive relationship, make sure you have a plan ready so that you always have somewhere to go in an emergency.
If you want to leave a violent partner or relative, we recommend that you make a plan. Get in touch with someone who can help you get to a safe place; the social services, the police, the women's shelter or someone you trust, such as a neighbor or friend. Also plan for children's safety.
Be well prepared and make sure you bring important things with you when you leave your partner. If you can, have a bag packed and ready, perhaps with a friend or neighbor.
Important to bring when you leave home:
Passport and / or identification
Bank cards, bank boxes, code cards and the like
Mobile phone and charger, computer / tablet
Money, jewelry, keys and other valuables
Securities and important documents, such as residence permits, contracts, insurance certificates, etc.
Important addresses and telephone numbers, for example to the children's preschool or school
Any medications
Any contact lenses, glasses, braces
For you valuable photos, maybe of yourself and the kids
Things with emotional value for you and the kids
Change of clothes for you and the children
Some good advice
For diary, but keep it hidden (take it with you when you go)
Save messages, pictures and the like that can be evidence
Tell someone about your situation (a friend, a neighbor, a colleague, your doctor…)
In case of injuries, see a doctor and get it documented (alternatively document yourself or ask someone to help you take pictures)
Do not think it will never happen again
Call a women's shelter or other support unit, such as a counselor or social worker, and ask for help, support and advice
Make a police report
In an emergency of violence, leave home if you can and take your children with you. If you can not leave home, lock yourself somewhere safe and call the police (112) or a friend / neighbor and ask for help!
For further practical and financial help, both emergency and non-emergency, (such as the need for sheltered housing), call your social services in the district or municipality to which you belong. If you need emergency help, you can call the municipality's social emergency service, ie the social services' emergency service that works evenings, nights and weekends.
