The DV&A Voices Project

The Domestic Violence and Abuse (DV&A) Voices Project is part of the LDVS service and is commissioned by Leeds City Council. The project works to engage victim-survivors, who are no longer in a domestic abuse environment, in decision making within domestic abuse services.

The DV&A Voices Project works with participants in various ways, including groups, workshops with key decision makers, 1-1 with their support workers and via email and phone.

There are four dedicated teams within the project to engage with women, men, children and the LGBT+ communities. Working in this way, enables a clear understanding of the different challenges that different people face and the insights gained are then used to improve and shape services. This helps victim-survivors feel empowered, listened to and part of real change for the future.
