Working in partnership to prevent domestic abuse is a key priority for the OPCC and that’s why Deputy PCC Dr Fatima Eltinay was delighted to join the great team at Space Counselling in Chesterfield to explore how their specialist services are supporting women, young people and schools across Derbyshire.
They have been awarded £4,890 through the first round of the OPCC Safer and Stronger Communities Fund to deliver a dedicated counselling service focused on tackling domestic abuse and supporting women to build healthier, safer futures.
The funded project will support women through counselling and workshops covering healthy relationships, financial planning and life coaching, alongside a coaching programme for female victims of domestic abuse that helps build supportive networks and empowers women to move forward positively with their lives. ❤️
👩🏫 The project also includes the delivery of a flexible prevention toolkit for schools, teachers and support staff, aimed at preventing domestic abuse, as well as targeted work with young people to explore relationship pressures, coercive control, sexual harassment and how to seek help and leave unsafe relationships.
Fatima was keen to highlight the importance of early intervention, education and partnership working in preventing harm and ensuring victims and survivors can access timely, trauma informed support. 👥
👏 It was also an opportunity to personally thank the team at Space Counselling for their commitment to preventing domestic abuse and strengthening support for women, young people and families across Derbyshire.
