Former Doctor Who star Jodie Whittaker has been named an ambassador for domestic abuse charity Tender.

The British actress commented 'Most of us know someone who has experienced an abusive relationship and many of us have felt at a loss as to how to support them, or to understand why it has happened. By supporting Tender, I know we are working towards helping every child have a safe space, to get the support they may need and teaching them what healthy, happy relationships look like'.
