A story that matters, needs to be heard<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

This short drama has an urgent and positive message. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is both a thank you and, I hope, a means to open up conversations, helping to amplify the domestic abuse #YouAreNotAlone<\/strong> Public awareness campaign. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The story was orginally created as a screenplay, but would also work equally well as an audio drama. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The most recent version is just under 15 minutes in length. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014 MARIA <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWhat an important and pertinent issue to shine a light on and what a fantastic piece. I think for a general audience it might open a lot of people\u2019s eyes.\u201d<\/strong>
\u2014 LEAH <\/p>\n\n\n\n
