Domestic Abuse Family Safety

This project offers individual sessions providing immediate safety work, support, and guidance. This enables families affected by domestic abuse to remain within their home.

This project also provides group sessions for parents. These sessions show the impact that domestic abuse has on their children.

The sessions help parents to build the skills needed to keep their family safe from future abuse.

Platfform for Families - Wellbeing Project

This project works with individuals or the whole family if they have low-level mental health or wellbeing needs. This may include parents, carers, young people and children.

Support begins with individual sessions. This progresses onto group sessions or further individual sessions where needed. The service offers a safe space for families to meet, chat and get support for their wellbeing. Families can share experiences with others who are facing similar challenges.

The sessions help families to re-connect and build resilience and a network of support. The project helps families to explore their needs, expectations and find helpful strategies to improve their wellbeing. They are shown how to support others in the family who may be struggling.
