Prevention
At Eighteen Plus we believe that preventing violence is just as important as supporting survivors
We work to prevent violence by utilising the award winning and evidence based Violence Is Preventable (V.I.P) programme
The V.I.P programme uses a range of books, DVDs, quizzes, games and worksheets to increase the safety of vulnerable people and enable earlier intervention where abuse or violence is ongoing. find out more by visiting www.violenceispreventable.org.uk

We also aim to indirectly change the mindset of any potential future abuser taking part |
