MAG's vision is a safe future for women, men and children affected by violence, conflict, and insecurity.

You'll play a key role in ensuring MAG's new global fundraising strategy becomes a reality, by developing and implementing multi-channel individual giving campaigns in the US and UK.

Together we can end domestic abuse. Forever. For everyone.

Our training programme significantly improves the ability of domestic abuse professionals and other frontline responders and organisations, including police, children’s social care staff, and corporate HR and community teams, to identify and respond to domestic abuse and closely linked issues. We take a holistic approach, looking at the whole family and the connections between them to keep families safe sooner.  We offer a whole range of training products, including accredited professional training (e.g. Idva, Ypva), accreditation of specialist DA services (Leading Lights), and bespoke services for public, voluntary and commercial organisations. 

Our training programme across England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland aims to create:

• User value: with learners who attend our training feeling more confident and better equipped to fulfil their role 
• Social value: with measures showing professionals who attend our training provide more effective interventions for those who experience abuse
• Financial value: responsible for generating around a third of SafeLives’ annual income
