MOVING IN THE SHADOWS

We dedicate this book to all the minority women who have lost their lives to mens violence and to the BME womens organisations which strive to create a safer and more just world

LIZ: In memory of my partner Corinna Seith, who died in 2010, and to my daughter Ema, close friends and colleagues who enabled me to dare to live and think again

HANANNA: To my parents, Nazir and Farkhunda, with love. Also, thanks to Steve Woodhouse for his support and patience

YASMIN: To my mother Shahida Rehman for your love and dedication. In recognition of the high price you have paid and continue to pay for ensuring we had a better life and were able to have the choices you were denied. To Ranjit and Shirley for your invaluable friendship, continuous support and encouragement, but most of all for helping me to find my voice and to step out of the shadows
