This year South West Surrey Domestic Abuse Service launched its Youth Ambassador Board. This consists of
4 young people who over this last year have attended quarterly ‘Hear the child’s voice’ meetings and become ambassadors in their local communities. They created a QR code to share with peers listing local services that can support young people.
These 4 individuals aged 12-16 then made the decision that they wanted to courageously document their experiences of domestic abuse and how services like ours can support. This video has been used as a training tool
in schools and has been presented at various professional platforms. These young people are committed to making social changes and to educate professionals on how to help in a child centred way.
They have created a legacy for children survivors of domestic abuse everywhere and for this we are truly grateful to the High Sheriff Youth Awards funding for making this possible and we could not be prouder of what they have achieved.
