CEDAR - Catholics Experiencing Domestic Abuse Resources

The Radio 4 'Sunday' programme last weekend carried a piece about CEDAR - Catholics Experiencing Domestic Abuse Resources.
The following quote from CEDAR's website gives an indication of its remit.
The Domestic Abuse Working Group (DAWG) of the Catholic Bishops’ Conference of England and Wales have gathered here a range of resources to help parishes, deaneries, dioceses, school and organisations in the Catholic Church in England and Wales grow in awareness of issues surrounding domestic abuse. Our aim is to create an environment within the Catholic community in which domestic abuse is understood and recognised as unacceptable and where appropriate responses are available.
I have put the link to CEDAR among the permanent links on the right of this site. I have also ordered some stickers which will be displayed in Church to give contact details to any of our community who may be glad of these resources.
