WEBSITE LAUNCH
We are thrilled to announce the introduction of our brand-new website. Behind the scenes, we've been hard at work to build a new, fresh, modern, and user-friendly website. We hope you like our new look...check it out today!
Our children’s outreach worker was recently interviewed by BBC Radio Nottingham about the work she does with children who are or have been affected by domestic abuse. We also hear from a parent and survivor whose daughter was supported through our children’s outreach service.
NIDAS #MakeThePromise Campaign & 16 Days of Activism
As part of White Ribbon Day 2021 and #16DaysOfActivism we launched our #MakeThePromise campaign which will focussed on the importance of speaking out and breaking the silence around domestic abuse. We invited local businesses and organisations to get involved and support us making a pledge to say 'no' to male violence against women.
We would like to say thank you to everyone who got involved and supported us with our campaign:
Ashfield District Council
MFP Linings
Nottinghamshire Police
Students at West Notts College
Notts SVSS
