We were delighted to support the recent 7th July Thames Valley Domestic Abuse Steering Group event – exploring Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) and trauma informed practice in relation to domestic abuse. We welcomed a staggering 330 online delegates on the day and were very fortunate to have the support of a range of experts in this field, who all helped make it a really lively and interesting information sharing opportunity. Special thanks go to DASH volunteer Mel, who gave her own personal experience of growing up in the shadow of domestic abuse – Mel, you are a truly amazing and brave person!
