Domestic Abuse Training
A message from the Surrey Domestic Abuse Partnership
The Surrey Domestic Abuse Partnership is aware that the measures that the government have taken to reduce the spread of Covid-19 will put survivors of domestic abuse at further risk. Being unable to leave the home will make accessing support even more difficult and being isolated at home with a perpetrator increases the risk of serious harm or worse.
For this reason we are determined that all our services will remain open to support those who need us. We have put contingency plans in place to enable to us to continue running our services and we are working with our partners to develop new working practices and protocols to help us deal with the current crisis.
Our community outreach services are still open to referrals although this service will be delivered remotely and the confidential Your Sanctuary DA Helpline and on-line chat service is available for anybody seeking information or support. The refuge network both in Surrey and across England and Wales are working hard to keep women and their children safe and can be accessed through the Your Sanctuary helpline.
The Government has issued guidance for people who are experiencing, or feel at risk of, domestic abuse.
