How we can help you
We provide peer support and recovery programmes for those who have experienced domestic abuse and are ready to begin a process of recovery.
First steps
We recognise that everyone’s needs will be different and we are committed to figuring out what that means for you, together
What is domestic abuse?
Any incident or pattern of incidents of controlling, coercive, threatening behaviour, violence or abuse between those aged 16 or over who are, or have been, intimate partners or family members regardless of gender or sexuality.
Recovery programmes
We work in dialogue together, as women, to explore the nature and experience of domestic abuse and enable self compassion and recovery.
Social and support group
Peer Support sessions delivered by VOICES staff in partnership with survivors of domestic abuse, for women who have experienced domestic abuse.
Tackling isolation
We know that living with domestic abuse as an adult or child is an incredibly isolating experience. You may feel cut off from family, good friends, work/school and social contacts. Feelings of shame, anxiety and confusion can make it difficult to tell people ‘where we’re at’, ‘what’s going on’ or ‘how we got here’. Feeling isolated and alone can affect our health and mental health. The good news is that we can rebuild connections and with them, our wellbeing and confidence too!
Advocacy and guidance
We’re affected in so many different ways when we have been in an abusive relationship. That is why VOICES provides individual recovery support tailored to your needs.
We can provide information & guidance to help you make choices and regain some control over your situation, and advocacy to help your voice be heard by other services.
We can support you now
If you are ready to have a conversation with us, leave a safe number for us to call and a time that suits you either on our answer machine or via email.
No commitments, no record without your consent. Just a conversation.
This service has saved my mental health and has provided a safe service whilst helping with coping mechanisms for the future.
