These confidential, private areas inside bank branches let victims make calls to charities and find immediate safety, staffed by trained colleagues who recognize signs of abuse. Complementing physical spaces, a mobile app helps locate safe zones and offers guidance on supporting victims, while banks also block payment references to combat economic abuse. This powerful partnership between finance and charities aims to ensure no one faces abuse alone, with support always within reach.
