It is upsetting to see someone you care about being taken advantage of or mistreated. Sometimes it is hard to work out exactly what is happening, but you might feel something isn’t quite right.

This booklet will help you understand abuse and what it looks like in families or relationships. When someone in a position of trust causes harm to an older person it is considered elder abuse. This harm can be through neglect or physical, emotional, sexual, social or financial abuse
