We deliver three specialist training programmes to help:
Survivors of domestic abuse heal and move forward
Children and young people affected by domestic abuse understand what’s happened and how it makes them feel
Perpetrators to change their behaviour
We know how difficult it can be for survivors of domestic abuse to move forward. Restored is a structured recovery programme for female survivors, which provides a safe space to start your recovery journey.
You will be supported to engage in therapeutic and educational activities, which are designed to help you heal and move forward.
You can engage in Group Work with other survivors of Domestic Abuse either as part of the Restored Programme or as stand alone group support.
Restored aims to:
An innovative, creative, educational 12-week course for women that can be run online or in person. The course enables women to regain ownership of their lives after they have been in a relationship with someone who has hurt them.
Course facilitators will provide a caring, supportive and safe space for women to meet together and do the course (either in person or online). It is interactive with lots of short videos, quizzes and discussion. Each participant receives the Own My Story journal, which has all the ideas, key concepts and content from the course, with space for reflection and notes.
Stay Free is a 21 group for women survivors of Domestic Abuse who have broken free from an abusive relationship, and would like to find ways of healing from the trauma of abuse and maintaining that freedom. It’s an ideal follow-on group for those who have attended the Freedom Programme or Own My Life but also a valuable experience even if you have not.
Childcare facility
While you take part, our specially trained and qualified creche team can look after your children, helping you to get the most out of your therapeutic group work and other support services.
If you’re a survivor of domestic abuse and feel ready to commit to a programme of recovery, empowerment and lasting change, we would love to welcome you to Restored.

If someone at home is hurting you, or another member of your family, that’s not okay. Nobody, of any age, should have to live with violence or abuse.
It’s important to remember that what is happening is not your fault and you don’t have to deal with it alone. There are people who can help you. Remember, hitting or hurting someone is against the law. Nobody has the right to hurt another person.
Seeing one of your parents hurt the other may make you feel scared or confused. You might feel too ashamed or afraid to tell anyone about what is going on at home.
Please talk to someone you trust – a family member like your grandparent(s), aunt or uncle or your teacher, coach or youth worker. You’re not alone, there are services to help and support you such as Childline.
We understand the impact domestic abuse can have on families. It’s important that both mothers and children are supported to heal and build healthy parent-child relationships.
Refresh is a programme dedicated to children and young people. After an assessment of need, an individual Personal Development Plan is created, identifying groups and activities to aid recovery.
Refresh aims to support children and young people to:
Children and young people will access a range of transformative, fun and engaging activities, delivered through:
DAY is a unique multimedia programme that uses short films, advertisements and chart music to raise awareness and provide education about domestic abuse and exploitation in a relevant and exciting way. It is designed to be used with young people over the age of 14, although can be adapted for use with young people over 11 years old.
It challenges detrimental mind-sets about abuse and exploitation, explores how beliefs inform behaviour, and looks at the role of the media in reinforcing unhealthy beliefs.
DART is for mothers and children (aged 7-14) who’ve experienced domestic abuse. Over a 10-week programme, they explore their issues within a safe and friendly environment, promoting openness and honesty. This programme is designed for one mum and one child per family. But if they have more than one child, you may invite them to complete the programme with the other children at a later time.
Each team member working with children and young people is specially trained. Supported by our dedicated volunteers, the team is committed to supporting children and young people to transform their lives.
If you’ve experienced domestic abuse and your children need support, call us on 01604 230588 to find out more, or contact us HERE.
Evolve aims to support those who commit domestic abuse (perpetrators) to change their behaviour and develop healthy relationships.
Partners and ex-partners who have experienced abuse are also supported through Evolve.

If you’re living in Northamptonshire, determined to change your behaviour and ready to commit to the programme, we want to hear from you. We will ask you to supply contact details for partners and ex-partners, who must be 18 or over, so we can make sure they’re offered support.
If you’re working with perpetrators, you can refer them to the programme. We will carry out an initial assessment and we would ask that you remain involved with the family throughout the programme.
