Parents and carers who have been affected by gender-based violence

If you have been affected by any form of gender-based violence (GBV) – whether it’s something recent or ongoing or if it happened a long time ago, there is a range of support available to you.

Coping with the impacts of GBV can be difficult and there is no set time for healing. Your child may be keen to discuss what they are learning about GBV with you and this might bring up difficult feelings and memories for you.

You deserve to be supported with this and you can find information about services including emotional support, practical support and legal advice here.
