Training

Helping you to make a difference

Training and awareness raising

Raising awareness about domestic violence and the work of Wycombe Women’s Aid is viewed as a priority and this happens through the delivery of training sessions, awareness raising sessions and facilitated workshops for voluntary, statutory and non-statutory organisations.  This is to enhance knowledge in order that the women and children who disclose that they are experiencing domestic violence receive an appropriate and positive response.

The Outreach Service offers support, awareness raising and training workshops to other agencies (including schools) and individuals regarding domestic violence issues.  A worker can also set up and facilitate workshops to improve work practice around domestic violence issues.  Training sessions that can be delivered include:

  • What is domestic violence
  • Coercive control and domestic violence
  • The effects of domestic violence on women
  • The effects of domestic violence on children
  • Why women stay
  • Forced marriage and honour based violence

The Outreach Service will also provide information and support to other groups who are setting up services for women who have experienced domestic violence.

For more information please contact Denise (Therapeutic Manager) on 07890 456907 or use our contact us page.

The Youth Service offers support, awareness raising and training workshops to schools, other agencies and youth settings specifically around domestic violence and young people and healthy relationships.  For more information please contact TBC (Youth Worker) on TBC or use our contact us page.

Presentations

A worker from the Outreach Service will happily go to other organisations or groups and give a presentation or talk about various aspects of domestic violence or living in a refuge.  This can be in the evening as well as the day time.
