Home Advantage

A performance exploring abuse which takes place in people's homes.

All work

Home Advantage explores the different types of abuse which vulnerable adults can experience in their own homes. It follows four fictional stories and throws light on how older adults and adults with learning needs, health or mental health issues can be targeted and abused.

Home Advantage

It explores physical, emotional and financial abuse and includes scenarios on ‘county lines’ and ‘cuckooing’. The audience are invited to discuss the impact of these experiences, how they could be prevented and what kind of support victims may need as a result of abuse.

The piece was designed for professionals who work in adult social care but is also suitable for professionals who work in related areas such as health, mental health and housing.

Home Advantage is also available as an Online Performance. For more information about how our Online Performances work, please click the link below:
