Living in isolation, and under strict surveillance by an abusive partner is frightening. The option to leave becomes harder. If possible, have a hidden phone. You may have a trusted neighbour, friends or family that can get help, perhaps a secret way to message them.

Beware: He may not like social isolation lifting and react against them.

Need help - Phone 000. If in danger and cannot speak the operator will ask you to press 55. They will send the police.
