Kaleidoscopic UK Hosts Post-Separation Abuse Awareness Reception at the Houses of Parliament

Kaleidoscopic UK was honored to attend the Houses of Parliament to host our Post-Separation Abuse Awareness Reception alongside Clive Jones MP, meeting with both MPs and Ministers.

It was a privilege to share experiences and raise awareness about post-separation abuse—a form of abuse that remains too often overlooked. Abuse does not necessarily end when a relationship ends. For most survivors, separation marks the beginning of another difficult chapter involving coercive control, harassment, intimidation, and the misuse of legal, financial, and child-custody systems.

As a survivor-led charity, we were proud to be joined by our team and patrons, Noushka Design Ltd and Dr. Carly Jones MBE. Our goal in Parliament was to highlight these realities, challenge misconceptions, build strategic connections, and advocate for systemic changes. Survivors and their children need systems that recognize patterns of abuse, prioritize meaningful prevention, protection and prosecution while ensuring their voices shape key decisions.

 

The importance of recognising post-separation abuse

Leaving an abuser should mark the opportunity to rebuild a life, not the start of another battle. It is also the most dangerous time whe escaping an abuser and must be recognised.
