Domestic Violence - Women's Aid celebrity campaign 1 Feb 2007
You may have stopped in your tracks this morning at the sight of the actress Fay Ripley - eight months pregnant and covered in bruises. Alongside her in the papers is a battered Honor Blackman, Fiona Bruce and Anna Friel. So how come so many celebrities appear to have been used as a punch bag? 

There is a new campaign by Women’s Aid called ACT - Admit it is a problem, Call it by its name, Talk to someone to highlight the problem of domestic violence. Nicola Harwin, the Chief Executive of Women’s Aid, joins Shelia to discuss the campaign.
