Welcome to the home of our Resources information…
Here you will find a wealth of materials designed to help victims/survivors of abuse or to educate people who want to support others.
While by no means do we offer a definitive list of the resources available, we understand that in searching for helpful content, many survivors may inadvertently come across unhelpful, potentially contradictory advice.
Here you will find direct links to a range of resources that come recommended by people who have been involved in Haven.
