Services Provided

Stopping violence services

We run separate group programmes for men and women with violence issues who want to make positive changes in their lives. Group programmes are a preferred method of working with changing behaviour. They help stop the feeling of you being the only one with these types of problems right from the start. If we find that you need more support than the groups can offer, we can also offer individual sessions, couple sessions and/or family sessions.
