Domestic Abuse Open Access Group

Cheshire West and Chester Domestic Abuse Intervention and Prevention Service will be offering open access groups from Chester, Winsford and Ellesmere Port.

This group will be supported by qualified IDVAs (Independent Domestic Violence Advocate) who can offer confidential advice and support to women relating to a range of subjects surrounding domestic abuse. The group will give you the opportunity to interact with others, share experiences and allow your voice to be heard. You will be able to enjoy refreshments and social sessions such as arts and crafts, beauty, wellness, and share other suggestions you may have to support our future sessions.

There is also support for men who have experienced domestic abuse at Storyhouse which runs every first Thursday of the month 5.30-7.30pm, any man can attend and there is no referral process.

Please contact the Domestic Abuse Prevention and Intervention Service for further information and support. Email IDVAWEST@cheshirewestandchester.gov.uk, or call 0300 1237047 and select option 2.
