We offer a range of services for individuals and families. Our services are developed to meet the need and demand within the local community. If you identify a service that isn't available in your area then let us know and we will see how we can help.
Buddy Scheme
The Buddy Scheme is a mentoring and befriending service which currently has 1 project coordinator and 16 trained volunteer mentors (or buddies) who, after receiving full training from us, each support between one and three service users at any one time. They do this in the form of weekly, one to one visits in the service user’s home for around an hour. Usually these relationships last for around 4 – 5 months, but this is very much an average and we have relationships which can be a good deal longer or shorter.
Community4
Community4 is a consortium of 4 local service providers, including Splitz, delivering a housing related floating support service in Wiltshire. The service supports people to live independently in a home they have chosen and aims to prevent housing crisis or homelessness.
This service is provided across Wiltshire on behalf of Wiltshire Council. For further information visit the Community4 website.
Domestic Violence/Abuse Outreach
Domestic abuse is the abuse of one partner within an intimate or family relationship. It is the repeated physical, psychological, sexual or financial abuse by a person known to you, usually your partner or ex-partner or family member. It is one person exerting systematic abusive power and control over another.

Wiltshire Outreach Service
Through our outreach service we aim to help victims of domestic abuse overcome their difficulties and improve safety for them and their children. One to one support is provided at a safe place of your choosing and you have an option to attend group sessions.
Women's Safety Service
Integral to our perpetrator programmes is the safety of the ex-partner and the childern. To promote this safety we have an integrated women's safety service. The women's safety worker helps the ex-partner to develop a safety plan and monitors the impact of the programme on the family.
This service is only available to the (ex)partners of men on our perpetrator programmes. If this doens't apply to you and you still want support contact us, you may be eligible for one of our other services.
Young People's Service
Children and young people know more about the abuse taking place at home than we might imagine. They are affected in many ways and often have nowhere to turn for support. Our support services provide that opportunity as well as providing information and support for the carer.
