Animation series with Police Scotland

Hemat Gryffe Women's Aid works closely with Police Scotland to ensure the safety of women, children and young people experiencing domestic abuse, honour-based abuse and forced marriage. 

Though there can sometimes be barriers for those seeking support to approach the police, we must work in partnership to appropriately advocate for women children and young people - and reassure them that the authorities are there to help. To do this, we have teamed up with Police Scotland to create an animation series for those experiencing domestic abuse and honour-based abuse. 

These animations have been funded by Hemat Gryffe Women's Aid and The University of Strathclyde. 

The animations have been translated into a range of languages: Arabic, Bengali, Chinese, Hindi, Polish, Punjabi, Russian, Ukrainian, Urdu and British Sign Language!

Domestic abuse animation


As part of the 16 Days of Activism For Violence Against Women and Girls, we worked in association with Police Scotland to develop an animation on how to get support if you are experiencing domestic abuse as an immirgant woman in Scotland. 

The animation informs all women experiencing domestic abuse that they are protected from abuse and exploitation by Scots law.

Honour-based abuse animation 


In the second edition we share the impact of domestic abuse on young people, with a focus on honour-based abuse. We want to encourage young people to reach out for support while building awareness of what honour-based abuse is and where young people can go to for support.
