The Ascent project is a pan-London project funded by London Councils, which aims to tackle sexual and domestic violence and abuse across London. It is made up of six strands – the Support Services to Organisations strand aims to support voluntary and community organisations working with those affected by domestic and/or sexual violence.

You can access all of the Ascent project’s trainings here, and read about the events we are holding here, but I thought I’d send you a selection of our upcoming offerings. All of our trainings are free to London-based organisations or projects working with those affected by sexual and/or domestic violence:

Would you like the opportunity to support your local community in an emergency situation?

CAMERA is a new and innovative emergency response & recovery volunteer team that has launched in the London Boroughs of Camden and Hammersmith & Fulham which will enable local people, businesses and organisations to help in a time of emergency through volunteering skills and experience as well as donating goods and space. The experience of the Grenfell Tragedy has highlighted that local people want to offer their skills and experience in an emergency, but were not allowed to as there was no time to vet their skills or train them. CAMERA will enable local people who have useful skills and experience, to offer their skills in an emergency, easily. Volunteers will be fully trained and will be called upon in an emergency situation.

There are a variety of ways to get involved in the project, depending on your skills and interests. Roles we have come up with include Rest Centre Officers, Social Media Assistants, Entertainers and Donation Sorting Assistants.
