It's live! Our podcast episode on the 16 days of action to end gender based violence is here: orlo.uk/oK4N6 Dani and Hannah from our Domestic Abuse and Sexual Violence team discuss how to spot abuse, who may be affected and what support is available. Take a listen

When supporting a friend or family member who may be experiencing domestic abuse, it's important to understand how they might be feeling.

Domestic abuse can also affect young people. The #16DaysOfActivism campaign is a good opportunity to highlight sources of help and support so if you know anyone who might need to reach out, GDASS can offer group work & 1:1 support for young people experiencing domestic abuse

We fund free, confidential services for people experiencing domestic abuse and you can refer yourself if you need support. GDASS is for women and men aged 16+. Call the helpdesk on 01452 726 570 or email [email protected] #16days

We would like to say a huge thank you to Tracy Oosthuizen and the SEND Education Team within Gloucestershire CC's Specialist Commissioning Support for using their team's Secret Santa to make donations for our clients!

Our Helpdesk and Professional Line will be closed this morning (13th December) until 11 AM. Calls will be returned when the helpdesk reopens. Please leave a voicemail or email [email protected]. In an emergency always call 999.
