What We Offer
Speaking engagements
Abbie is available to come and speak to groups on a variety of subjects, including self-harm, eating disorders, the work of Adullam Ministries, and the publication and content of her book, Secret Scars.
If you would like to book Abbie for an event then please email us.
Workshops
Adullam Ministries offers two Workshops, run by Abbie Robson. One is for anyone involved in working with people who self-harm (e.g. counsellors, nurses, teachers, ministers, prison workers), and another covers Basic Listening Skills, suitable for anyone who wants to improve the way they communicate with hurting people.
If you are interested either in hosting or attending a workshop in your area please email us.
Forums
Adullam Ministries provide these forums for anyone who wants to use them. This might be to celebrate successes, vent feelings, or share something that you have found helpful in dealing with self-harm.
There are different rooms for various types of people/conversation, but please don't feel limited to only posting in one!
Specifically there are areas for self-harmers, young self-harmers (under 18's), people who care for self-harmers (relatives, friends...), people who encounter self-harm professionally (nurses, teachers...), and general chatting rooms.
We have deliberately made the forums anonymous. We don't require an email address and you need not use your real name. However, we do require that you register and choose a password. This ensures that no-one else can post under your screen-name.
You will be asked to read some rules before posting any messages. These are general rules used in forums - you may be familiar with them. We would like you to please respect other users of the forum by putting a warning in the title line of the post if it contains anything you think may be triggering to other self-harmers. Using TTT at the beginning will let other users know that they might find your post difficult to read. We would also request that you don't use your loved one's real name - this reserves their right to confidentiality.
The forums will be moderated by people from Adullam, who are there to help and advise you as much as possible. However inappropriate messages will be editted/deleted, we'll even try to tell you why.
We pray that thse forums will be a blessing to you, that you find them encouraging and stregthening, and that they give you hope.
