We Support Victims of Domestic Abuse to Build lives free from Domestic Abuse

Story

Having seen domestic abuse cause pain and upset to a number of my relatives over the years, and never felt well positioned to offer any support, this opportunity to join the Behind Closed Doors team felt like a good way to start supporting those sufferers, and survivors, and to help spread the word about the great work that Behind Closed Doors do as a charity. 

My mother-in-law, Gill Brook, volunteers for the charity as Company Secretary, and it is her involvement that has served as inspiration for me to put my hand up and join the team.

Behind Closed Doors' vision is to build lives free from Domestic abuse.

Your donation will contribute to their new Volunteer Programme where they hope to increase their capacity to be able to reach more people in need.

About the charity

Behind Closed Doors helps people throughout Leeds whose lives have been, or are, affected by domestic violence and abuse to cope, recover and move on from their experiences. Our Community Domestic Violence Team is part of the Leeds Domestic Violence Service, offering information, advocacy, and practical support to those who are at high risk as a result of their abusive relationship. Our Prevention and Recovery Service (PARS) offers a non-crisis response programme of emotional support to those affected by domestic violence and abuse who are at low risk of harm, helping them to make sense of their experience, recover and move on positively
