A leading UK charity committed to ending gender based violence and abuse.

Children and young people experience gender based violence in their own right. Responses to these experiences must be tailored to their needs. On the 29th of November we will address this topic this with a FREE seminar at The Foundry. 

This course will look at the impact of domestic and sexual abuse on children and young people. We will explore how abuse can affect the relationships between the non-abusive parent and the child and also the impact of trauma on the brain and on relationships. Practical activities and resources for supporting and working with families will be shared as well as up to date information on risk assessment and safety planning.

Held in Leeds at Leeds City Council, LS2 8BB.
This course looks at definitions of Violence Against Women and Girls (VAWG), myths and statistics, reasons why it is difficult to leave an abusive relationship, indicators of violence and how to provide support to those affected. It will provide you with information on local and national services and referral processes.
