"Redcar and Cleveland Council commissioned Dawn from September 2022 to March 2023 to deliver domestic abuse training to over 200 front-line staff across a range of teams following the implementation of the Domestic Abuse Act 2021. From initial discussions through to the evaluation Dawn was very professional, ensuring the course content captured all the elements we needed to meet several needs across the organisation from understanding the different types of abuse, using professional curiosity, the impact of domestic abuse on children and information sharing. Dawn delivered the training online and provided a great mix of PowerPoint and interactive elements with the use of break-out rooms, and in addition, provided delegates with a very useful resource pack following the sessions. Included with the training was a comprehensive evaluation including fantastic feedback from delegates and clearly demonstrated they had improved their knowledge and skills in this area and had enjoyed the training. Dawn is an expert in this field and I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for someone to deliver domestic abuse training at any level."
Sharon Dalton, Domestic Abuse Strategic Lead, Redcar and Cleveland Council
Dawn's session on domestic abuse was a transformative experience for our team. She masterfully navigated a topic often seen as daunting, making it accessible and inclusive. Her approach not only heightened our awareness of domestic abuse but also empowered us with practical knowledge to identify and address it effectively. The diversity of perspectives in our group was skillfully accommodated, ensuring that each member left better able to recognise and respond to signs of abuse. The insights gained are also invaluable in guiding our product and service design, making them more sensitive to the intricacies of power dynamics and risks associated with domestic abuse. Dawn's expertise has been instrumental in enhancing our team's competence and developing our approach to creating more socially aware and impactful solutions.
