New Leaf Project to prevent abuse and support those experiencing abuse

New Leaf is an innovative domestic abuse service tailored specifically for young people in Greenwich. Recognising that young women experience more domestic and sexual abuse than any other age group, New Leaf combines the expertise of Little Fish Theatre Company and Her Centre in a holistic model to engage and empower young people, promote positive relationships, prevent abuse and support those experiencing abuse.

The project aims to:

• Raise awareness of healthy relationship boundaries to help young people identify harmful behaviours and risks.
• Support young women in breaking free from violent or abusive relationships through one-on-one support, group work, and counselling.
• Educate young men on the impact of their actions, promoting non-violent conflict resolution.
• Equip professionals with the skills to effectively respond to young people's experiences of abuse and increase referrals to domestic abuse services.
