1. Background

1.1 This is the summary findings from three consultation events held to consult children and young people with experience of domestic abuse ( CYPEDA) on the Scottish Government National Domestic Abuse Delivery Group Draft Proposals. The purpose of the consultation events was to provide a voice to young people in the shaping of the proposals.

1.2 Events were held in October 2007, in Glasgow, Edinburgh and Inverness. Thirty three children and young people aged between 8 and 16, with experience of domestic abuse, took part in the events: a mix of boys and girls; young people from urban and rural areas; and from a range of ethnic origins. Other young people with connections to Women's Aid and who had experience of other consultative events were recruited to assist with the planning and facilitation of the events.
