For Idvas, specialist Idvas, and the DA frontline.

Support from an Idva, Idva specialist, or domestic abuse professional can change, and save, lives. The data tells us so. And time and again, survivors tell us too.

And yet for those working at the frontline, it can sometimes feel like you’re out there on your own. Caseloads are high. Budgets are low. Time is squeezed. Capacity is stretched. Victories are hard won, and attitudes hard to change.

While you’re supporting victims and survivors, who’s supporting you?

We are.

It’s about policy

Translating the latest research, guidelines, and legislation into real-world action.

It’s about practice

Developing knowledge, practical skills, and professional confidence.

It’s about people

Celebrating all that DA frontliners do, and helping you preserve your wellbeing while you do it.

It’s about purpose

Fostering collaboration that drives real change, and creating space for meaningful conversations – no matter how hard.

What’s it all about?

The DA Frontline Excellence Conference (England & Wales) is brought to you by SafeLives, thanks to funding from the Ministry of Justice.

Let’s end domestic abuse for everyone. For good.
