LSCP information for professionals

Safe & Together

Safe and Together is an internationally recognised training programme, with an associated package of tools and resources, designed to help child protection professionals to improve their response to domestic abuse.

The Safe & Together Model encourages professionals to:

Hold perpetrators responsible for their abusive behaviour
Support survivors towards safety and freedom
Improve children’s safety and wellbeing

The model’s name comes from the idea that wherever possible, children should be kept ‘safe and together’ with their non-abusing parent – in most cases their mother.
