- Both men and women can change their abusive behaviour.
- Everyone is responsible for their own actions.
- Everyone affected by domestic violence should have access to services.
- All our work with perpetrators and victims actively promotes positive and constructive relationships.

You can download or request a self-help guide which can help you take responsibility and begin to address your behaviour. It is for both male and female perpetrators of Domestic Violence. Please note this guide is not to replace undertaking a specialist perpetrator programme.
