Have you thought about getting older and who will protect you? Have you considered that perhaps you have worked hard to provide for your family, and when you are vulnerable, everything changes?


Yes, this is another bleak episode where we explore domestic abuse of the over 60's. We discuss who can be abusers and how to recognise subtle clues that will identify a victim.

We look uniquely at the issues abusers face and why victims may not wish to cause a fuss and live with the abuse.


Hourglass is a unique charity that is funded to support victims.


Isobel Irwin no longer works with Hourglass. However, you can get all the information you need to support them and potential victims with whom you may come into contact.
