The Changing Harmful attitudes and Behaviour (CHAB) programme is a feasibility trial currently running in Leicester, Leicestershire, Rutland from February 2025-April 2026. This is a partnership between the Drive Partnership, H.O.P.E CIC Sikh Women’s Aid and Halo Project.
Please find enclosed information on our new programme aiming to work with people from South Asian communities who use harmful behaviours towards partners, ex-partners, and family members.
The Drive Partnership’s National Systems Change work is currently focused on improving the responses to domestic abuse across children’s social care, housing, racialised communities, and LGBT+ communities.
Thanks to further funding from the National Lottery Community Fund, The Esmée Fairbairn Foundation, and Treebeard Trust, the Drive Partnership launched a new phase of its National Systems Change work by partnering with specialist by-and-for organisations and experts by experience to co-design improved responses to perpetrators of domestic abuse across Black African, Caribbean and Mixed Heritage communities, South Asian communities, and LGBT+ communities.
In 2025, the co-design phase of this process was completed, and delivery partners were identified to deliver the varying interventions. H.O.P.E CIC is pleased to be the delivery partner for the South Asian Communities intervention.
