DAVSS is an award winning community based charity supporting any victims (aged 16 and above) of domestic abuse, who are living in West Kent. Using a unique and highly effective professional volunteering model we provide vital support to clients who are experiencing domestic abuse.
DAVSS volunteers, supported by our professional staff team listen without judging, answer calls to our helpline, meet clients face to face (when Covid regulations permit), prepare individual bespoke safety plans, support clients to court if needed and help them begin to rebuild their lives.
