We provide a specialist 1:1 service for young women and girls aged 11-25 living, studying or based in close proximity to Barnet and neighbouring boroughs.
Our long term, 18 months support, programme engages young women and girls with direct experiences of relationship abuse, sexual violence, intra-familial abuse, exploitation, and/or where there are significant risk indicators present in the young persons life that may increase their exposure to harm.
Young women and girls are referred through professional, self and peer or familial pathways and will be engaged in weekly or fortnightly support. The service is offered from a space safe for them, including our community spaces, at their home or within their educational setting.
How our service is different from traditional IDVA models:
-
We offer long term support for up to 18 months, enabling you to build trusted and safe relationships that exceed immediate, crisis intervention and also focus on implementing a support package for continued development once a survivor has achieved immediate safety
-
We keep our caseloads low and manageable, supporting no more than 10 young women and girls at any one time. This has been proven to reduce stress and burn out, whilst increasing your capacity to create a targeted and needs-based response for each young person
-
Our interventions are holistic and flexible, ranging from trips and outings, to visits in school, at home or a safe local community space. This approach enables you to have more freedom over how the intervention is shaped and delivered, reducing rigidity and any feelings the relationship is impersonal
-
We offer access to a range of healing opportunities outside of the 1:1 Support, including fortnightly group trips with other young survivors to establish connection and reduce isolation, fortnightly group wellbeing workshops, access to Youth Employment opportunities within our creative education curriculum and opportunities to shape the organisation through our independent Youth Board.

MLC are proud to be partnered with Citizens Advice to recruit their new Finance Consultant, who will provide support and guidance across the local Citizens Advice offices across the country. You will be responsible for a portfolio of offices, building strong working relationships with both finance and non-finance staff in those offices. You’ll bring your financial expertise and knowledge to a team of people working hard to give advice to millions across the country.
This year Citizens Advice are celebrating their 85th anniversary and during that time they have been helping to shape a society that’s fairer for everyone – working on issues that affect the whole of society. Last year they directly helped over 2.66 million people find a way forward with one-to-one advice, in addition to over 60 million views of their online self-help advice. As part of their commitment to supporting society, they are one of a small number of statutory consumer watchdogs with the ability to submit super-complaints to government. Their value to society has been estimated at £4.7 billion.
