Merseyside Domestic Violence Service Ltd (MDVS) is the leading Respect Accredited Service in Merseyside. Formally known as Chrysalis we have been established since 2003. Our track record spans over twenty years serving the most vulnerable members of our diverse communities in Liverpool.

MDVS is distinguished by its pioneering and innovative approach to tackling domestic and culturally based abuse. We don’t just respond to cases; we actively work to break the repetitive and devastating cycles of abuse that trap women and children.
This proactive stance demonstrates our deep understanding of the complexities surrounding domestic violence and our determination to drive change.
At MDVS, we pride ourselves on setting industry standards. Our methods and strategies are often emulated, but our unique blend of compassion, expertise, and unwavering commitment sets us apart.
We believe in leaving no stone unturned until every woman, child, and young person we encounter is safe and empowered.
Our vision is to be recognised not just as a leading service provider in the UK, but as a catalyst for transformative change in the lives of those affected by domestic abuse.
Our organisation is much more than a service provider; we are a haven of hope and a powerhouse of positive change.
Our commitment to being ‘Leaders of Change’ is embedded in our ethos. We continually strive to be at the forefront of innovation in domestic abuse services, ensuring that our strategies are not only effective but also serve as a model for others to emulate.
Our goal is to redefine the landscape of domestic violence support, making a lasting and significant impact not only in Merseyside but across the UK.
We owe much credit to our funders, supporters and partners who share our ethos and to our remarkable highly skilled dedicated team of staff and volunteers who go the extra mile.
Together we are the leaders and innovators of change!
