Virgin Money is rolling out “safe spaces” in its branches to support people affected by domestic abuse. The initiative provides private, confidential areas within participating branches where customers can access help and support. Local reporting states that Virgin Money branches in Glasgow and surrounding areas will offer these secure spaces for people experiencing domestic abuse. Another outlet says safe spaces are designed to be discreet and accessible, allowing anyone affected by abuse to receive assistance in a setting that protects privacy. The program is also described as expanding across a wider branch network, with one report citing rollout to 42 branches. The outlets agree that the safe spaces are intended for individuals experiencing domestic abuse and that they function as designated locations inside branches rather than requiring people to contact support in advance. The information released focuses on the availability of private spaces, confidentiality, and the ability to access support while remaining within a branch environment.
