Hello everyone,

Good news. This campaign has reached Parliament. The House of Commons Petitions Team confirmed the route on 17 July: amend Part IV of the Family Law Act 1996 so survivors without shared children get the same safeguards in the family court - fact-finding hearings, pattern-of-behaviour evidence, and no more undertakings where violence has been used or threatened.

There's now a new petition on Parliament's official site that would change how the land lies for people like me. Please sign here if you are able to: Create a legal route to write off coerced debt for victims of economic abuse. Two minutes, UK residents and British citizens, and click the confirmation email or it won't count. 

Thank you for signing - your support means a huge amount, and I'm thrilled the House of Commons has heard us.
