Support for children & young people

underline

Children and young people are directly affected by domestic abuse and have the right to support in their own lives.

We provide safe, supportive services to help them feel heard, understood and able to move forward.

Support for children & young people

Children are now legally recognised as victims of domestic abuse in their own right under the Domestic Abuse Act 2021.

Living in a home where abuse is present can cause serious harm to a child’s:

  • Emotional wellbeing
  • Cognitive development
  • School performance
  • Social confidence

The impact on children and young people

Children may:

  • Become withdrawn or anxious
  • Struggle with sleep or nightmares
  • Exhibit aggression or regression
  • Engage in self-harm, disordered eating or substance use
  • Experience long-term trauma

If you think you are experiencing domestic abuse, contact us for support and talk to a domestic abuse advisor at TDAS.
