This time of year for any victim of domestic abuse is a difficult time of year. That is why today at 1pm we are running our online support group for men. Men can be experiencing so many different emotions which they may not have the capabilities to display safely for themselves or people around them. Turning to Addictions as a copying strategy sometimes. Suicidal thoughts as a result of not being able to deal with the grief of being separated from their children's during a time for families is a hard emotion sometimes to regulate. Sometimes it is just simply good to talk and to be with people even if it is over Zoom, to have that feeling of friendship.

So if you would like to join us, or maybe you are an organisation and you think some of your clients could benefit from this... please reach out via office@jonathanshouse.org.uk and we send out links as quickly as possible. Yet again today at 1pm.

Thank you for your time.

At Jonathan’s House Ministries, we welcome these settlements and are grateful that men have been acknowledged, even if only briefly. This recognition matters because the challenges men face are significant and deserve more than a passing mention. In Wales alone, an estimated 337 men died by su***de in 2024, with a rate of 25.0 per 100,000—the highest in the UK. Men account for roughly three in four su***des here. Domestic abuse also affects men in substantial numbers: across Welsh police forces, 66,228 male victims were recorded between 2020 and 2024, representing around 30% of all cases. Age risk overlaps are striking too—men aged 25 to 44 make up the largest share of police-recorded male victims and are central in su***de risk profiles, while the UK’s highest male su***de rate is among those aged 50 to 54, continuing strongly into the 45 to 64 group.

These realities show why men should not remain a side note. Their experiences matter, and recognising them fully is a vital step towards meaningful change.

I want to be honest. I’m deeply concerned about the current approach within the male domestic abuse sector. There’s a lot of talk about strategies for men and boys, but without real action, those words don’t mean much. Recently, we’ve seen initiatives aimed at educating boys in schools and campaigns to prevent future violence, which is important – but where is the same energy for supporting boys who are already vulnerable and in need?

It’s time to move beyond passive promises. Advocacy means standing up and being visible, not sitting back and letting others dictate the agenda. These boys deserve genuine support, and that requires courage and commitment. Governments do listen when voices are clear and consistent – even if that means challenging the status quo.

As someone who experienced abuse and had no support, I take my role as an advocate seriously. At Jonathan’s House, we’ve made progress without compromise and without causing offence – because when your heart and intentions are right, you can create meaningful change. Domestic abuse is a human issue, and every person deserves an advocate.

Let’s work together to ensure that men and boys are not forgotten.

There are not people who talk about domestic abuse. Not many will open the doors and will be honest regarding the domestic abuse industry as it has now become. We are proud of our patron Erin Pizzey and the impact she has had on women and mens lives.

Important Update from Jonathan’s House
For the past two and a half years, we’ve been proud to offer a 24/7 helpline to support those affected by domestic abuse. This service has been close to my heart, and it’s been a privilege to ensure help was available at any hour for anyone in need.
However, maintaining this level of availability has largely been a personal effort, both in time and resources, and it’s become clear that continuing at this pace is not sustainable. After careful discussions with our management team, board of trustees, and directors, we’ve made the decision to adjust our helpline hours to ensure the long-term health of the service and our team.
From Monday, 24th November 2025, our helpline will operate from 3:00 pm to midnight, seven days a week.
This was not an easy decision, but it is the right one—for Jonathan’s House, for our current clients, and for those who will reach out in the future. Our calls often last 45 minutes to an hour, and the need for this service remains significant. By making this change now, we can continue to provide high-quality support without risking burnout or financial strain.
Jonathan’s House is not going anywhere. In fact, we are growing as a team, and that is something to celebrate. With more volunteers and sustainable funding, we hope to expand our hours again in the future.
How you can help:
If you’d like to support our mission—whether by volunteering your time or making a donation—please visit: https://jonathanshouse.org.uk. Every contribution helps us keep this vital service running and accessible to those who need it most.
Thank you, as always, for your continued support. Together, we can build a stronger, safer future.

On this International Men's Day, I would iust like to remind everyone that every Wednesday, we at Jonathan's House run two online support groups. We have one that starts at 1pm and we have another that starts at 7pm We have men attending from all across the UK, who have suffered from domestic abuse or sexual abuse. We have counsellors who are present during the sessions, our new managers and ambassadors will be there too. All with the point of view to give men a space to be heard. We provide practical support when it comes to putting ir copying strategies for being separated from your children as a result of making a disclosure. You will hear from men who have successfully steered through this minefield we have men who are drowning in the family courts and are crying out for support.
For anyone who would be interested in joining us on one or both of these groups please follow this link https://jonathanshouse.org.uk/support-groups/ and one of the team will send you across access to the room.
