Positive Change Service (PCS)

Work with children who have lived with family conflict, parents who have experienced abuse and parents who have been abusive.

They deliver programmes for perpetrators and survivors of domestic violence and their children.
The weekly programmes for children and mothers run parallel over 12 weeks. The programmes for dads run over 20 weeks in Sylheti and English (individual programmes to female perpetrators / male survivors/ those requiring interpreters).

Referral is via CSC Mosaic and via children’s centres. We work with survivors and children (not perpetrators) via early help. Professionals making the referral need to have consent from the family.
