#DomesticAbuseAwarenessMonth reminds us that awareness matters. By learning more about domestic abuse, the signs to look out for, and the support available, we all can contribute to communities where people feel safe and supported.@WDCouncil

It’s just the little things - a walk in the park, a chat over hot chocolate, a listening ear. These moments build trust and confidence for young people in Scotland. Could you give a couple of hours a week to mentor a young person and make a big difference? 💙 #mentor
