We offer support to children and young people who have been affected by domestic abuse in the home and in their own relationships. We support all age groups of children; the support includes one to one support and group programmes. Children have the opportunity to participate in sessions where they can explore their own feelings, discuss healthy relationships and ensure safety plans are put in place. We also provide shared sessions with other children of similar age ranges; we arrange group work and outings during the school holidays.
We offer follow on support for children who leave refuge accommodation, the child has a dedicated worker to support with their individual needs.
MDWA is a grassroots, community-driven support charity and network for women and children at risk of domestic abuse.
MDWA is affiliated with Scottish Women’s Aid.
