Description

Post-separation abuse can be devastating. Leaving an abusive relationship doesn’t always mean the abuse ends, in many cases, it escalates. The emotional, financial, and psychological toll can be even more severe after separation. This form of abuse is often harder to recognise, more difficult to evidence, and leaves survivors feeling alone and unheard.

This training programmes equip legal professionals working in family law with the skills to recognise and address coercive control, enabling them to provide better support to victims. You’ll learn practical strategies for recognising coercive control, understanding its impact, navigating family court proceedings, and offering effective support to those affected by post-separation abuse.

Boost your professional credentials and showcase your commitment to continuous growth by earning 4 CPD points through a combination of online training and self-directed learning with our comprehensive handbook.

Text reads: 'Join us in making a difference. Funds raised will go directly to support mums affected by post-separation abuse.
