Male victims of domestic abuse in Scotland are to be helped to control their finances without fear of repercussion.
The project is the result of a new partnership between Abused Men In Scotland (AMIS), Scotland’s leading charity and helpline for male domestic abuse, and the Vulnerability Registration Service (VRS), a not-for-profit company providing the UK’s first central vulnerability database.
Abused men who have given permission will be registered onto the VRS database by AMIS on their behalf. Their names will then be highlighted safely and securely to credit and service providers through a “risk of coercion” flag applied by the VRS.
