Women abused by female partners
07 February 2016
This study is looking at the experiences and needs of women abused by same sex partners. I'm particularly keen to talk to BME women, older women, disabled women, trans and other non-binary gender women, bi/pansexual women, and religious women.
The study takes place entirely online, as a small group discussion based on a short film.

About the researcher
I'm a part-time PhD student with the University of Bristol, looking at the experiences and needs of women abused by same sex partners. I've spoken to domestic violence professionals, and now I'm building on that by speaking to survivors of abuse.
I'm a lesbian, a feminist, and an ex-domestic violence worker. I also live alone with my cat - embrace the lesbian stereotype!
