Level 3: Domestic abuse response
We want to equip your church to feel confident in supporting survivors of domestic abuse.
Our level 3 course builds on the previous two levels of training to prepare people in churches and faith-based organisations to walk alongside victims/survivors on their road to recovery.
Level 3 course content
This course we’ll equip you with practical tools to safely and effectively walk alongside survivors. We’ll cover:
- An introduction to the concept of trauma and how this should inform our response to victims/survivors.
- A reflection on boundaries
- How to handle disclosures
- An overview of how the safeguarding system in the UK works

The Level 3 Training runs either as a one-day course on Saturdays or you can cover the content over three evenings, from 7-9 pm. The course costs £60 per person to attend.
“Thank you for the course, it was very helpful for me at the start of my journey helping survivors. You could easily get lost in the complexity of abuse and trying to help friends, but the importance of understanding “my” role in helping and not stepping outside that role is vital. I think that came across in a loving way but still setting out clearly where you can help survivors.”
We’ll come to you
If you’re thinking of booking a group of people from your church or organisation on to our training, why not get in touch with us about running a bespoke training course, just for you?
