Shocking Growth In Baby Victims of Abuse

Figures released by UK wide charity Buttle UK has shown a staggering growth in the number of young victims exposed to domestic abuse. Buttle UK's exclusive figures show that the number of grants awarded to families affected by domestic abuse rose by 22% between 2015 and 2016. Over £1 million was awarded by the charity, who provide financial support to help children up to the age of 18, who's families were affected by domestic abuse last year alone. Alarmingly the charity reported nearly 10,000 children were referred to Buttle UK last year, who had been affected by domestic abuse. Out of these 3,384 children were aged four or under.

Gerri McAndrew, CEO of Buttle UK, said: "Domestic abuse is an extensive and largely under-reported problem across the UK. Support services often assume that a child's needs can be met by a...

Scorrail introduces no smoking regulations

Surely this is something to rejoice amongst all of the terrible things that have happened this year, especially recently. However, I cannot help but be very sceptical of this new arrangement.

Now unable to smoke on the station, they gather in hives at the gate entrance, a spot where the regulation dose not stretch and where they can still see and run for their trains at the last minute. This collective of smoking individuals is something any person seeking to board a train at the same station must pus...

Soical Media: Relationship Poision

In Today's world everything we do is shared on social media, including our relationships, but what effect does this really have on our romance life? Sherry Turkle, writes in her book Reclaiming conversation; The Power of Talk in a Digital Age: " You learn to give your friends a pass when they drop in and our of conversation to talk with friends on their phones. And a flirtation, you learn to treat NOTHING as something to put out of your mind." While Turkle explores what she calls The Nothing Gambit , the effects of technology on the way we communicate and what we expect from the people we have relationships with, I am more curious in the effects of social media at large on our relationships. When a couple enters a romantic relationship it is commonly expected that they will announce this relationship online through their many social media applications, and in doing so receive likes and acknowledgement from their friends and loved ones. This then continues thro...
