Our organisational or team offer
As well as individual, instant-book workshops, we’ve developed training sessions exclusively for your team or wider organisation, available for up to 50 people per workshop.
Our training directly supports the expectations set out in Families First and Best Start in Life guidance by equipping professionals across Best Start Family Hubs, education, safeguarding partnerships and front door services to better recognise, respond to, and safely address domestic abuse as a key driver of harm in the earliest years.
By strengthening confidence in identifying risk, understanding domestic abuse, and working in a coordinated, trauma-informed way, our sessions can help practitioners meet their responsibilities to provide effective family help, inform multi-agency decision-making, and safeguard babies and children where domestic abuse is a factor.
