Together against violence: Enlightenment in Murau am Coffee With Cops

In the Murau district, an important information event was recently held, which dealt with the sensitive topic of domestic violence. The crime prevention officer and security coordinator Romana Revoul explained to the participants of the Red Cross, which there are signs of domestic violence and how to help in these cases. This event was part of a cooperation between "Together. With our police" and the Red Cross, which had already started in February 2024.

The meeting not only emphasized the various forms of domestic violence, but also informed about the available help offers and the role of the police, in particular the ban on entering and rising. Such measures are important to protect those affected and to ensure a quick reaction in suspicious incidents.

options and information

A central concern of Romana Revoul was to show the supervisors of the Red Cross the different options for action. These people are often the first to notice the signs of violence because they are in daily contact with needy or older people. It is therefore essential that you are well informed and know how to act in the situation.

"Only through education and awareness to the possibilities of the use of help from help to the intervention of the police, you can fight against violence in privacy. Because domestic violence must not be a 'private matter'!"

In order to further inform the public about the topic, Revoul announced another information event. On November 27th there will be a “Coffee With Cops” appointment in Murau, in which citizens can speak to police officers in a relaxed atmosphere. This date will take place as part of the UN campaign "Orange the World-16 days against violence against women" and the citizens are invited to ask their questions and receive information about violence protection.

In addition to the conversations, a list of important telephone numbers for people who need support was provided:

• Styrian help telephone - crisis helplines for relationship problems and relationship power: 0800 20 44 22 (anonymous and free first place in the first place in the event of questions on the subject of violence)
• men's emergency call: 0800 246 247
• police emergency call: 133

This commitment is an important step towards raising and combating domestic violence. Information about offers of help and preventive measures are crucial to help affected people and prevent violence in their own family.
