Why Cranstoun helps
Domestic abuse is a crime. All people should feel safe in their homes and communities, and all people can feel safe in their homes and communities. No one deserves to experience violence, emotional abuse, financial abuse or any form of controlling, harmful behaviour. Here at Cranstoun, your safety, mental health and physical wellness is of our utmost concern and our compassionate, experienced and dedicated domestic abuse team are here to support you, your family and your community.
As well as being committed to supporting survivors, we are passionate about intervention for those who are displaying abusive behaviour. We feel it is crucial to engage with the root of the problem and do our bit to highlight, educate and transform.
With every person that comes forward, every family brought to safety and every perspective transformed for the better, we can create a safer world for everyone.
How Cranstoun helps
Domestic abuse can affect anyone. It is non-discriminatory and here at Cranstoun we understand that each case is unique and can be complicated. When you work with Cranstoun, we will focus on your and your family’s safety. This is our priority.

- Assessment and support for victims and children
