Anyone who needs support and advice around domestic abuse is invited to come along to The Maidstone One Stop Shop at Trinity House on Church St every Tuesday between 9.30am and 11.30am.
Maidstone One Stop Shop is a free, confidential drop-in service which is led by Clarion and provides support to anyone who is currently, or has experienced domestic abuse. Help is available from specially trained professionals around safety planning, signposting to legal advice, housing and emotional wellbeing.
The Domestic abuse services at MBC are currently undertaking a national accreditation from Standing Together which is The Domestic Abuse Housing Alliance (DAHA). It means the team will make sure there is safe, sustainable accommodation which meets the needs of each individual who is experiencing domestic abuse and will be internally and externally audited to ensure a trauma-informed response.
The Domestic Abuse One Stop Shop runs every Tuesday at Trinity House, 20 Church Street, ME14 1LY from 9.30am to 11.30am.
