Please download and share our poster, and ask to display it in your church or place of worship.
Signposting Toolkit for churches & faith leaders
This domestic abuse signposting toolkit has information about different kinds of support available for victims and survivors. People require very different kinds of support depending on their situation, identity and where they are on their journey to safety and recovery. This toolkit will guide you through the options available.
We also have workshops to help you learn more about faith-literate supports for victims and survivors of domestic abuse and gender-based violence.
