Angus Women’s Aid (AWA) has an exciting opportunity for people to join our court advocacy team. We are looking for individuals who have a genuine interest in working with women who are victims of domestic abuse, and are passionate about making a difference.

Angus Women’s Aid is a registered charity giving information, support and refuge to women, children and young people who have experienced domestic abuse.

Our Domestic Abuse Court Advocacy service is focused on reducing risk and improving the safety and wellbeing of victims of domestic abuse in Angus, which aims to ensure that all women, children and young people affected by domestic abuse, are safe, informed and supported throughout their involvement with the criminal justice system.

Applicants should have a knowledge of domestic abuse and be committed to working with those who experience it, be enthusiastic, motivated, have excellent communication skills and be able to work collaboratively in a multi-agency environment, evidencing a respectful and inclusive approach. The use of a non-judgemental approach is essential, and you should be committed to working within the ethos of a feminist analysis of abuse.
