You’ll be supporting and managing a case load of adult perpetrators of domestic abuse on a 1:2:1 and group basis, to change unhealthy behaviours, emphasising the importance of personal accountability and the safety of victims and children.

**Equality, diversity & inclusion are at the heart of our work** and play a crucial role in championing an inclusive approach to all our practice. Within the sector, there is an under representation of men in support roles, so we would be keen to hear from any men who feel they would do well in the role.

**Our History and services.**

Our organisation was founded in 1977 by the late Lily Jones. Lily Jones was a “gritty and determined” woman who dedicated her life to helping people escape from their abusers.

She arrived in Crewe in 1974 and, after running an action group that campaigned for women’s rights, she set up what is now known as My CWA (Cheshire Without Abuse). After a long struggle to secure premises, Lily finally opened her women’s refuge in 1983.

In the early days, she ran a helpline from her own home and, on several occasions, helped people move across the country herself to escape from their abusers. Lily even fought for funding while fighting her own personal battle against breast cancer. Lily sadly passed away 2003 - aged just 53 - but her commitment to helping families affected by domestic abuse lives on in the charity she set up.

Lily’s legacy lives on in the multi-award-winning My CWA we know today. We offer a range of services, including a 24-hour helpline, refuge accommodation, practical advice, legal clinics, peer support groups and recovery and behaviour change programmes. We also offer specialist support for children and young people affected by domestic abuse.

Abuse can happen regardless of age, class, disability, gender identity, sexual orientation, race or religion. Last year alone, we helped around 3,000 people through our whole family approach supporting survivors, children as young as two and perpetrators who want to change their harmful behaviours.

Our vision is to build a community where adults and children live free from the fear of domestic abuse. Our mission is to help people impacted by domestic abuse, and our values are Trust, Courage and Respect.
