Do you know a young person aged 13–24 who grew up with domestic abuse at home? Their voice could help improve support for other young survivors in our City.

Juno Women’s Aid are inviting young people of all genders and identities to take part in a safe and supportive consultation about what helped them, what support could have made a difference, and what services should understand better.

This is NOT about asking young people to talk about the abuse itself.

We know taking part in something like this can feel daunting, so we want young people and parents/carers to know:

• Participants can remain anonymous
• They can change their mind at any time
• They can bring someone they trust to interviews
• Interviews can happen online or in person
• We can support with travel costs
• Everyone who takes part in a 1-1 interview receives a £20 thank you voucher
• We will keep participants and their information safe throughout

For some young people, sharing their views can feel empowering and their ideas could help create better support for others in the future.

If you would like to find out more or chat things through before deciding, please contact our facilitator Anna at anna.clark@junowomensaid.org.uk
