CORRIE stars have put together an emotional video urging victims of domestic abuse to call 999 during lockdown. Women’s Aid, who provide life-saving services to those in need, is currently assisting the soap’s producers and writers with the coercive control storyline between Yasmeen and Geoff.
The new video campaign, released in conjunction with Women's Aid, features some of Corrie’s popular stars explaining how to make a ‘silent call’ on the phone.
Shelley King, who plays Yasmeen, Sair Khan, Sally Dynevor, Sally Carman and past-favourite Julie Hesmondhalgh, explain that by calling 999 and pressing 55, it will let the operator know it’s an emergency and the police are needed.
