Family Violence Education

Family Violence Education sessions help people recognise the signs of abuse, understand what a healthy relationship looks like, and know exactly where to go for support — for themselves or for someone they care about. Sessions are shaped around the group that hosts them, whether that is a workplace, a community group or a cultural organisation.

What changes

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

  • Participants can recognise common signs of abuse

  • Participants understand what a healthy relationship looks like

  • Participants know where to seek support, for themselves or someone else

How it runs

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

  1. 1 — What abuse can look like

    Emotional, physical, domestic, family and sexual abuse, explained clearly and without shock tactics.

  2. 2 — What healthy looks like

    Respect, consent and communication as everyday, learnable skills.

  3. 3 — What to do next

    Practical guidance on starting a conversation, and where to find trusted support.

How this programme is measured

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

  • Participant confidence and knowledge, self-reported before and after each session

  • Host feedback collected after every session

Keeping people safe

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

  • Trauma-informed, non-graphic delivery; no shock imagery or fear-based messaging

  • Participants may opt out of any activity without explanation

  • Support information provided at every session, whether or not anyone discloses

Where this sits in our model

  • Pillar 02 — Education

    Workshops and educational programmes that give people the language and confidence to recognise abuse before it escalates.

  • Pillar 04 — Inclusion

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