Ask Marc - support for men experiencing abuse in the Black Country

Country

Men across the Black Country who are facing domestic abuse, stalking, forced marriage, so-called honour-based violence, rape and sexual violence, childhood sexual abuse, grooming, or exploitation now have a dedicated lifeline.

Ask Marc is a specialist support service created to help men who may feel isolated or unsure where to turn. The service provides confidential advice, emotional support, and practical guidance to those affected by abuse and violence.

The message is clear: “You don’t have to deal with it alone – someone is here to listen.”

For many men, speaking out about abuse can feel impossible due to stigma or fear. Ask Marc aims to break that silence by offering a safe, understanding space where victims can access help without judgment.

Key features of Ask Marc include:

• Specialist support tailored for men

• Confidential and non-judgmental advice

• Help with issues including domestic abuse, sexual violence, forced marriage, and exploitation

•
