'He headbutted me, kicked me and I heard my ribs break'
A woman who feared she would be killed by an abusive partner has urged victims of domestic violence to come forward and trust the police to put offenders in jail.
Chelsea Hamilton, 32, was attacked with a knife and crossbow during incidents across three years.
Her ex-partner was sentenced in 2023 to six-and-a-half years imprisonment for various offences.
She has backed an updated police action plan which will see violence against women and girls given the same priority as dealing with terrorism.
