About the Service

We provide trauma informed, child centred support in Caerphilly for children and young people aged 0–25, as well as their parents and carers, who have been affected by domestic abuse. Support is flexible, confidential and shaped around the needs of each child or family.  

Every family receives a trauma informed triage and a coproduced support plan, ensuring interventions are timely, needs led and safe. Sessions can take place at home, in school, in the community, in refuge or online. 

We work with: 

  • Children and young people aged 0–25 (including antenatal support) 

  • Parents and carers affected by domestic abuse 

  • Young people experiencing abuse in their own relationships 

  • Families needing help to understand and manage the impact of domestic abuse 

  • Caerphilly’s housing, wellbeing and VAWDASV pathways to ensure a joined up approach. 

How We Help

Group Programmes

Practitioners deliver evidence based group programmes such as STARCYP Recovery ToolkitAdult Recovery ToolkitSPACE Toolkit and Break4Change, helping families understand the impact of domestic abuse and develop positive coping strategies.
