We provide a range of confidential services to women, men and children experiencing domestic abuse, no matter what their age, ethnicity, religion or background. The Charity’s aim is not just to provide crisis support, but to enable victims to tap into the range of support available and empower them to break the cycle of abuse for good. We educate children and young people, helping them identify abuse in relationships, understand their own experiences and build up their own resilience, so they can put the abuse behind them where it belongs and focus on their future. We ensure we speak up for victims when they are not able to, by attending meetings with them and we educate professionals across local statutory and voluntary services to hold them accountable and ensure they provide the best response to those needing their help.
We provide specialist support to adults and children experiencing mental health issues, modern slavery, immigration, trafficking, homelessness and complex needs associated with Domestic Abuse, empowering them to live a life beyond crisis and ensuring their voices are heard.
We help victims access free legal help, obtain injunctions, arrange for them to have screens and video-links if giving evidence at court and we will support them on the day.
We also speak up for them and advocate on their behalf with housing teams, police, social care. We provide safety devices to help them feel safer in their own home and help source donations of anything they need to make their life a little easier or a little brighter whilst they are trying to stay safe.
Our programmes help women, children and men recognise tactics of abuse, so they can feel more empowered and break the cycle of abuse.
