A Valentine's day 'pop-up shop' is highlighting the 'darker' side of love.

The creative space in Dublin City Centre has been organised to challenge perceptions about 'love' and 'romance'.

Women's Aid CEO, Sarah Benson says they want to teach young women in particular, about the difference between healthy and unhealthy relationships.

"We're inviting people to come in and engage with products which have a slightly sinister, slightly twisted side, and that is all about raising awareness of intimate partner abuse amongst young people in particular."

The pop up shop is part of a broader Women’s Aid campaign which aims to highlight the difference between healthy and unhealthy relationships.

Hashtag Too Into You is particularly targeted at young women – to let them know the signs of intimate relationship abuse.

Young people are being encouraged to take Relationship Quiz at toointoyou.ie to see if their relationship is healthy or not.
