Domestic abuse affects 1 in 3 women and approximately 750,000 children witness domestic violence each year, yet it takes on average up to 35 instances of abuse before people affected report what's happening. Family Action works with families in need of support in these circumstances and the training of specialist staff is vital to make sure those affected get the best service available. The grant will pay for a worker to coordinate the training of 600 domestic abuse champions in services across England, and trial five specialist approaches to preventing abuse. Well trained staff can spot cases of abuse early on and therefore provide better support to thousands of service users, and the five specialist services will test new approaches to effective prevention.
