Active Bystander workshop & Helpline launch

We are a domestic abuse and sexual violence service for Deaf people and children, and the first service of its kind in the UK.  We have been established since 2010.We are a small team of experienced and qualified caseworkers who all use British Sign Language (BSL) as their first or second language.We work closely with mainstream domestic abuse and sexual violence services, and Deaf people can either use our service or, with our support, access local mainstream services.  Our aim is not to duplicate or replace mainstream services, but to complement them and remove the barriers that prevent Deaf people seeking support to escape domestic abuse.  In 2023 our caseworkers completed some additional training to become Independent Sexual Violence Advisors (ISVAs), meaning that we will now be providing support for people who experience sexual violence.
