Safe Newcastle Multi-Agency Domestic Abuse Training Programme for 2024-2025.
For Newcastle Diocese staff and volunteers.
Safe Newcastle are pleased to introduce our Domestic Abuse Multi-Agency Training Programme for 2024 – 2025. This training can help you recognise the signs and indicators of domestic abuse, understand the issues affecting those subjected to it and respond safely and effectively when someone needs our protection, help and support.
The training programme is primarily aimed at managers, paid staff and volunteers who may encounter people subjected to domestic abuse, perpetrators of abuse and / or child victims of domestic abuse.
This is an introductory level course therefore no prior knowledge is necessary. The course is suitable for practitioners who may encounter people subjected to domestic abuse, perpetrators and / or children living in families where abuse is occurring. The course is for practitioners who work with people living in Newcastle, however, the training is available in different local authority areas.
