In the charity's own words
We run residential, experiential workshops for those who have been affected by serious crime so that they can begin to place their experience into the context of their lives and be able to choose to restore past roles and relationships. Through this work we hope to inform other groups and agencies about the potential to meet the unmet needs of victims of serious crimes.
