In response to the murder of 15-year-old Holly Newton, Home Secretary Yvette Cooper is considering lowering the age for recognizing victims of domestic abuse. Currently, both victim and abuser must be over 16 for incidents to be classified as domestic abuse. Holly’s mother, Micala Trussler, advocates for more education on recognizing abusive relationships among young people. Her family has also initiated fundraising for bleed control kits in public spaces, emphasizing the need for awareness and open communication about domestic abuse among youth.
