Membership
Eligibility, categories, benefits and fees
Respect membership
Respect membership supports domestic abuse organisations primarily working with perpetrators, but also those supporting male victims and those working with young people's violence and abuse in close relationships. Members access affordable high-quality training, networking opportunities, expert support and resources.
Eligibility
Respect membership is open for organisations or individuals who either work in the domestic abuse field or have an interest in the work Respect does and agree to sign up to Respect's Principles.
Membership categories
There are two membership categories: Organisational and Individual.
Organisational members can be Full members or Associate:
Full organisational membership is for organisations offering domestic abuse services (to perpetrators, victims or young people)
Associate organisational membership is for organisations that don't offer domestic abuse services but have an interest in helping end domestic abuse and in the work Respect does.
Individual membership is for domestic abuse practitioners, including researchers.
Benefits of membership
Becoming a member of Respect gives you many benefits to develop your knowledge, improve your practice and be part of a network of organisations and individuals who want to end domestic abuse. All members are entitled to attend Respect's AGM and put themselves forward to become Trustees.
