Bury Independent Domestic Abuse Advisor (IDVA)
We deliver IDVA services to support victims and survivors of domestic abuse on behalf of Bury’s Community Safety Partnership.
We provide support for those assessed at both high and medium risk. Both services, the high risk IDVA support and the medium risk domestic abuse outreach support, can be accessed by women and men in the Bury area who are currently or have previously experienced domestic abuse.
By integrating the delivery of both services, we can offer flexible support that can react in a timely way and provide continuity of support.
