The Empower Project

The Empower Project Confidential support, counselling and training for men impacted by domestic abuse whether as survivors or those ready for change.

The Empower Project understands that domestic abuse affects everyone and that men, whether survivors or those who have used harmful behaviours need tailored support. We provide trauma informed counselling, training and guidance for men impacted by domestic abuse. Our work is rooted in understanding, compassion, and accountability, creating safe spaces for healing and meaningful change. Led by experienced therapists, we support men in breaking the cycle of harm and rebuilding their lives with dignity.

Many men don’t report abuse.

Not because it didn’t happen.
But because shame told them to stay quiet.

“Handle it.”
“Man up.”
“No one will believe you.”

Silence protects the stigma.
Speaking breaks it.

If you’re struggling, you are not weak for asking for support.

We are here.

“It wasn’t physical, so I thought it didn’t count.”

Many people assume abuse must involve physical violence.

But abuse can also include:

• Coercion
• Control
• Intimidation
• Emotional manipulation
• Financial restriction
• Isolation

These behaviours can damage confidence, independence and wellbeing over time.

Abuse is not always visible — but it is still abuse.

At The Empower Project, we support men who have experienced abuse and men who want to address harmful behaviours in themselves.

Domestic abuse work is not one-dimensional.

At The Empower Project, we support:

• Men who have experienced abuse
• Men who recognise harmful behaviour in themselves
• Men who want to break destructive cycles
• Men who want to rebuild safely and responsibly

This makes some people uncomfortable.

But prevention does not happen by choosing sides.

If we only support victims, harmful behaviour continues unchecked.
If we only challenge perpetrators, men suffering in silence remain unseen.

Real prevention means working with both.

Structured support.
Clear boundaries.
Honest conversations.
Accountability alongside compassion.

Domestic abuse is not limited by gender.

Men experience abuse too.
It is often underreported.
It is often minimised.
And sometimes, it is dismissed altogether.

If roles were reversed, would we respond differently?

At The Empower Project, we support men who have experienced abuse.
We also work with men who need to take responsibility for harmful behaviour.

Because safeguarding victims and promoting accountability are not opposing ideas. They are both essential.

Real change requires honest, sometimes uncomfortable conversations.

We are prepared to have them.

For some men, progress begins with one decision.

To stop blaming.
To start reflecting.
To take responsibility properly.

Accountability isn’t about shame.
It’s about building safer futures through structured support and honest work.

Real change takes more than good intentions.

Some men need stability.
Some need specialist support.
Many need both.

Through our partnership with First People Housing, men can access safe accommodation alongside structured behaviour change work.

Housing creates space.

Accountability creates change.

At The Empower Project, we work with men who have experienced abuse and men who have used harmful behaviour, supporting safer futures through responsibility and practical intervention.

Abuse is not “just anger.”
It is not “just stress.”
It is not something that “just happens.”

It is a pattern of behaviour.

And behaviour can change.

At The Empower Project, we work with:

• Men who have experienced abuse
• Men who have used harmful behaviour
• Professionals seeking specialist referrals

Change does not begin with excuses.
It begins with ownership.

If you are ready to make a different choice, or need support to stay safe, we are here.

Real change takes more than one service.

Domestic abuse rarely exists on its own. It can sit alongside housing instability, mental health pressures, financial stress, and breakdown in relationships.

That is why The Empower Project works in partnership with First People Housing CIC.

Together we provide:

• Specialist domestic abuse support
• Accountability and behaviour change work
• Safe accommodation and practical stability

Support is stronger when services work together.

Domestic abuse does not end by itself.

It ends when behaviour is recognised, addressed, and changed.

At The Empower Project, we:

• Support men who have experienced abuse
• Work with men who have caused harm
• Focus on accountability and safer futures

Patterns continue when they are ignored.
Change begins when they are faced.

Male Domestic abuse has been in the headlines again recently, and it is also being highlighted on Coronation Street. It is an important reminder that abuse does not always look how people expect, and men can be victims too.

Many men struggle to speak up because of stigma, embarrassment or fear they will not be taken seriously. That silence can leave people feeling isolated when support is actually available.

If you know someone who might be struggling, or if this resonates personally, please reach out. Support, understanding and change are possible.

Empower Project offers support for men who have experienced harm, and for those wanting to change harmful behaviours.

Reading James’ story is genuinely heartbreaking.
Domestic abuse isn’t always visible, and it certainly isn’t limited to one gender.

Many men stay silent because of stigma, embarrassment or fear of not being believed. That silence can cost lives.

Everyone deserves support, safety and the chance to speak without judgement. If you or someone you know needs help, please reach out.
