AVP Britain > welcome to AVP Britain

The Alternatives to Violence Project organises workshops which empower people to lead nonviolent lives, based on respecting and caring for ourselves and others.

We believe there is a power for peace and good in everyone, and this power has the ability to transform our relationships.

Our workshops allow us to experience and deepen our understanding of:

• affirmation (thinking and speaking positively)
• respect for all
• community building
• co-operation
• trust

AVP workshops are for everyone, and can be particularly useful for

• anyone who has resentments that become grudges
• anyone who gets upset at being ignored
• anyone who has difficulty with anger
• anyone who is a bully or is bullied; in fact
• anyone who wants an Alternative to Violence

On this site, you can find out more about what AVP is, and where we are running workshops near you.

If you would like to take part in an AVP workshop, or would like to set one up for your community, workplace, school or neighbourhood, please contact us.
