Domestic Abuse Survivor Group (DASG)

You are not alone.

Our mission is simple.

Survivors of domestic abuse supporting each other, and working towards a child-focused and safety-first approach when relationships breakdown.

We are a unique organisation of survivors of domestic abuse who are impassioned to bring about positive change. Our experiences have led us to come together to support each other but also to help address the numerous failings in the current system that puts our survivors and our children at more risk.

Whether it's the Family Courts, Social Services, Police, CAFCASS, Experts or Schools we know how it is. We want to partner with institutions to bring about positive change for our survivors and their children.

We provide 24/7 chat support so you will never feel lonely again. All confidential and anonymous.

We get it

The abuser is not always seen by the rest of the world

Our experienced support staff get it. Our survivors have all been on the receiving end of narcissistic, gaslighting, manipulative, charming abusers. We see what others may not see, including professionals. You don't need to explain to us. But you can if you want to, we always listen. We are here for you and support where we are able to.

A whole new arena...for abuse?

Family Courts

Help or feels like more abuse?

If you have ever experienced the family courts process for domestic abuse survivors, you know that logic and rationale are not always apparent. That is not to say there are some excellent judges out there and family law professionals. The system currently, though, has areas to improve. We will help you navigate. It might not always seem intuitive. But then, neither was your abuser. You need your strength to survive in a different way. We recommend resources and professionals who could assist. We even have a database of known experts that could be helpful. We are here to help give you the confidence to achieve the best outcome.
