Get help for yourself

If you are in an emergency situation,
always call the Police on 999 in the first
instance.
If you are, or have experienced domestic abuse or sexual violence,  we are here to help. We have specially trained staff who can talk with you confidentially and offer guidance and support tailored to your need

 

Get help for someone else

It can be difficult to know what to do if you know or suspect someone is, or has been, a victim of domestic abuse or sexual violence.
Our helpline staff can also offer advice to friends and family on what options are available to the victim and to you.

We also offer monthly Family & Friend support clinics, contact our Helpline for more information

We are currently operating waiting lists for some of our services including outreach, counselling and ISVA. We will endeavor to offer support as quickly as possible and will maintain contact with you during your wait. If your circumstances should change please phone the helpline or in an emergency call the police.

 

Our services are free and confidential, identifying information will be shared with UAVA member agencies only.  No information will be shared with external or partner agencies without your consent unless, in exceptional situations, a significant risk to you, your children or others is identified; or we are instructed to do so by a court of law.  We will always try and discuss this with you first wherever possible.
