A specialist service supporting the development of professionals in Somerset. We are here to reduce the negative impact of child sexual abuse (CSA) on the lives of children and families living in Somerset
Get in TouchSomerset Phoenix Project is a small service providing support, training, consultation and signposting to professionals supporting children, young people and families affected by child sexual abuse (CSA).
Our purpose is to upskill frontline professionals who already have a relationship with children and young people affected by child sexual abuse (CSA). So they can improve the effectiveness of their support.
Our training is currently postponed due to Covid 19. We are busy behind the scenes on changing our training into virtual online training. We are aiming to launch these in September.
A central part of the Phoenix offer is our consultation service for professionals seeking support to devise an effective action plan for young people impacted by CSA.
Our team can offer a specialist consultation tailored to the specific case this can be:
