Ask for Ani: Domestic abuse help scheme explained

Tortoise said:
'If you are in immediate danger, always call 999. If you ring 999 and are not in a safe position to speak to us then cough, or tap, the phone and press 55, when prompted. This will alert the operator that you need assistance and we will provide support.

'Alternatively there is a new scheme to help victims called 'Ask for Ani' which gives victims an opportunity to reach out for help at pharmacies, including Boots, without making their situation obvious to other members of the public, or alerting their abuser.
