Drop Ins & Survivor Friendly Networks

Survivor Friendly Networks

We are invested in supporting communities and individuals to set up and develop Survivor Friendly Groups, to create a network of sustainable groups across Lincolnshire enhancing support for survivors at a local level. Those who have experienced domestic abuse will be able to access safe empowering spaces for emotional and practical support, to increase connection with fellow survivors and build confidence, self-esteem and resilience.

Interested in accessing a survivor friendly group?

If you are wondering whether joining a group is something you want to do, this is what survivors have said about the groups:

"I think these sessions are brilliant. It's a safe space to talk and share. We are learning so much about ourselves and how to handle tough situations. I feel much more empowered to deal with what comes. It's brilliant. We are able to be vulnerable but safe to say things that have been used to control and make us feel bad and labelled unstable. I can be completely honest and authentic without fear of judgement and feel we are all in the same boat. There is strength in numbers" 

Here is a list of the current Survivor friendly groups in Lincolnshire that are supported by LDASS: 

  • MULTIPLE LOCATIONS COUNTY WIDE: Bro Pro UK - A safe place for men to meet, socialise & talk. Contact: Bro Pro UK 

*Please note that all the aforementioned groups operate independently and are not part of the LDASS service*

Would you like to set up or be part of developing a survivor friendly group?

These survivor friendly groups are independently run rather than a service provided by the Outreach and Engagement team within LDASS.  Our role is to assist with the group start-up and development through a process of consultancy, training and support. 

If you are interested in setting up a survivor friendly group and being part of this network, please contact the OET team for further information.
