Jonathan's House Support Groups​

Jonathan’s House CIC facilitates trauma-informed support groups across South Wales for male survivors of abuse — whether currently affected or healing from past experiences. These safe spaces empower men to share their stories, connect with others, and begin their recovery journey.

Research from The Priory Study Group reveals that 40% of men remain silent about abuse. We aim to reach this unheard fraction by strengthening engagement among the 60% already seeking help. Through open dialogue, we challenge societal stigma and advocate for meaningful change.

Our support groups are available locally in South Wales. contact us to learn more about joining a session or making a referral.
