'THIS is the shocking poster that West Midlands Police believe will help to combat domestic violence over the festive season.

The photograph of a woman’s battered face with a man’s bruised hand covering her mouth is part of an advertising campaign by cops to tackle the growing problem.

The Christmas campaign comes amid figures which reveal December is the lowest month for reporting incidents of domestic violence, with women suffering in silence because they want to “hold it together” for the sake of the family.'
