Crisis Support: safety planning
We support women and children suffering domestic abuse at all levels of risk of homicide or harm from perpetrators. We do this through our independent Domestic abuse Advisor (IDVA) services, accredited by Safelives ‘Leading Lights’. We provide risk management and safety planning and a tailored support plan to meet the needs of each woman.
Emotional and practical help
We provide emotional and practical support for survivors of domestic abuse and violence through the criminal justice system, including targeted advocacy and support for those who report to the police, courts and Crown Prosecution Service through the process.
Advocacy support
We advocate for women accessing local authority services through our colocated Advocates in statutory settings such as children’s services, housing and hospitals, who are referred to us, working in a coordinated community response with statutory and agencies to provide an improved response to survivors.
Holistic support and women’s centres
Our domestic abuse outreach advocates support women and girls who have experience domestic violence and abuse, with multiple and complex needs linked to their experiences, including those who are homeless, and specialist groups and activities at our Women’s Centres.
Support to children and young people
We provide specialist support for children and young people from the age of 5 to 18 affected by experiences of domestic abuse and responding to their needs, in collaboration with Children’s services and schools where appropriate.
