Study from the ‘For Baby’s Sake Trust’ Highlights Mental Health Crisis in Domestic Abuse

Startling data from The For Baby’s Sake Trust, a charity providing trauma-informed, therapeutic support to break the cycles of domestic abuse, underscores the urgent need for mental health-focused domestic abuse interventions.  

As Mental Health Awareness Week approaches (13-19 May), the Trust issues a call for cross-sector collaboration to address the mental health crisis underpinning domestic abuse with their Healing Starts Here campaign, launched as part of The Big Give’s Kind2Mind fundraising initiative.  

Charity highlights support for parents of deaf children

The National Deaf Children’s Society is highlighting the support available to parents of deaf children, as part of Deaf Awareness Week (6-12 May).  

With more than 90% of deaf children born to hearing parents with no experience of deafness, many families can be unsure where to go for support or what being deaf means for their child’s future. Parents who are deaf may also not always know where to go to for support when they are told their child is deaf.
