Community Awareness

Community Awareness campaigns help make abuse easier to talk about — reducing stigma, encouraging conversations, and making sure people know where to turn, before a crisis rather than only after one.

What changes

Stated as capabilities people hold afterwards, not as activities we delivered. Activities are easy to count and prove nothing.

  • More people recognise the signs of abuse and know where to seek help

  • Conversations about abuse become less stigmatised in the communities we reach

  • More people know Solid Hearts exists and what it offers

How it runs

Published in full, so you always know exactly what to expect before you get in touch.

  1. 1 — Listen first

    Campaigns are shaped around what communities say they need to hear.

  2. 2 — Speak plainly

    No fear-based messaging or shock imagery — clear, respectful, and honest.

  3. 3 — Point somewhere useful

    Every campaign links back to real support options, not just awareness for its own sake.

How this programme is measured

You receive your own cohort data. We publish the aggregate, including the results that are not flattering.

  • Reach and engagement of campaigns, reported honestly and without inflated claims

  • Growth in enquiries to Solid Hearts following a campaign

Keeping people safe

Non-negotiable and identical across every programme. Our safeguarding and child protection policies are available on request.

  • No imagery or language depicting distress or violence

  • Campaign content reviewed against our trauma-informed communication principles before publication

Where this sits in our model

  • Pillar 04 — Inclusion

    Reaching the communities most often missed — ethnic and migrant communities, rural areas, and people with the least access.

  • Pillar 05 — Community

    Community engagement, volunteering and events, so support outlasts any single workshop or funding round.
