We often get asked to share our insight and expertise in setting up, delivering and evaluating services as well as developing service specifications and theories of change, and to mentor other service providers as they navigate the world of commissioning and performance reporting.

If you would like to find out how our experts can help and support your organisation, please email [email protected] or call 023 8000 1061. We charge a small fee for this service, which goes fully towards our hardship fund for service users who struggle to pay for travel to attend our programmes and interventions. Through the support offered by our hardship fund, these individuals are more likely to complete the interventions.

What They Say

Read our case studies

Southampton Violence Reduction Unit grant funded Hampton Trust to train school, police, NHS and council staff in ACEs awareness, but also most importantly how to respond differently and deal with young people who may react in a trauma-affected way to events. This has been invaluable in spreading the knowledge and raising awareness of the impacts of ACEs across Southampton.

Southampton City Council

I found the training really helpful in opening my eyes to seeing perpetrators as part of the solution to reducing risks to children.

DARE training participant

Good balance of teaching styles and group involvement, thank you for a useful learning opportunity.

ACEs training participant

I can now confidently explore the wider context with perpetrators of domestic abuse to enhance effective engagement taking into consideration the tactics perpetrators use as a barrier for engagement and this maximising opportunities for engagement.

DARE training participant

I will share the knowledge and information taught with my team and fellow colleagues, creating a handbook of information to help them when potentially coming across perpetrators as well as have a clear way of showing where to signpost to.

DARE training participant

The trainers were excellent. Very clear and concise and open to questions and discussions.
