Our mission is to eliminate patterns of abuse and educate society on their role in calling-out unwanted behaviour and supporting survivors.

Testimonials
The work that Lise and her team are doing through Soundproofbox is immeasurable. Being able to reach out to children and young people in a way that is engaging and impactive is not easy but the red flags performance does this brilliantly. It opens up so many conversations with young people about relationships that they might see around them and the type of relationship they too might find themselves in. Lise has worked tirelessly to see this established and her determination to prevent others from being affected by Coercive Control is evident throughout. A highly professional and impactive organisation that will change lives.

From the moment the performance began, the audience was drawn into a gripping narrative that artfully unfolded, shedding light on the complex dynamics of domestic abuse. What stood out most was the genuine commitment to authenticity and realism displayed by the talented cast. The actors approached their roles with an unwavering dedication that allowed the audience to connect deeply with the characters and their stories.
The creative team behind this performance deserves huge praise for their dedication to raising awareness about domestic abuse in a way that is both impactful and respectful.
Audience member -Joe Newton, Selby
Thank you so much for coming in yesterday and delivering such educational and informative performances on what is a really tricky, yet very important topic to share.
The students were engaged, very much involved, and it gave us a completely new and different way to deliver key messages about toxic and unhealthy relationships - something they will remember and take with them. The use of physical 'red flags' means students have to be engaged and think about their own considerations - as we know when entering a potentially controlling relationship or being the victim of domestic violence, it isn't always easy to see the 'red flags' for yourself - students will certainly remember the triggers and key messages from your performances
