Raising awareness of domestic abuse

There is a requirement that the Raising awareness of domestic abuse course is completed by all clergy, PTO, Readers, Bishop and Pastoral visitors, Parish Safeguarding Officers, PCC and lay chapter members. It is estimated that domestic abuse affects 1 in 3 women and 1 in 7 men. Therefore, we will all know people who are victims and perpetrators of domestic abuse.

The aim of the module is designed to equip participants to engage thoughtfully and proactively with the issue of domestic abuse and those affected.

We recognise that not everyone will wish to complete modules online so we are also offering some face-to-face sessions. This might be a good way to ensure that people feel safe and supported when accessing the training, particularly with this module.
