About the CPD course
Older victims/survivors are often invisible from domestic abuse services. They are at an increased risk of experiencing abuse from family members and are most likely to experience economic abuse. This course will provide learners an insight into the prevalence and distinct nature of domestic abuse affecting older people. The course will increase learners’ confidence in recognising the signs of domestic abuse affecting older people and responding appropriately.

Safer Places Professional Training and Development
Safer Places is a not-for-profit organisation working in Essex and Hertfordshire. We aim to ensure the safety, improve the quality of life and reduce repeat victimisation of adults and children fleeing from or living with domestic abuse, by providing a comprehensive service of support. This involves offering advice and information, safe refuge accommodation, community based floating support, a 24 hour support line, counselling, legal services, education and training (in life skills such as literacy, numeracy, language, hobbies and employment).
