Every day vulnerable adults are physically, psychologically, financially or sexually abused, discriminated against or neglected. And everyday people witness this and say nothing!

Adults most at risk of abuse are those individuals aged 18 years and over who may be unable:
• Take care of themselves
• Speak out for themselves
• Protect themselves against abuse or exploitation abuse is any behaviour towards a person that deliberately or unknowingly causes him or her harm, endangers life or violates their rights.
