Refuge

We provide safe supported housing to South Asian women and children. Our support is provided in a culturally sensitive, non-judgemental manner by Asian women to Asian women in their own language. We can provide refuge accommodation to other women who may identify similarities with us through language, culture or religion.

Counselling

We understand the emotional and psychological harm an abusive relationship can cause. Managing and looking after one's mental health is key to recovery.

​

We are committed to providing counselling to our service users in either a South-Asian language or English; whichever a survivor feels most comfortable and confident with.

​

​

Community Support

Immigration

​

Emergency injunction and protective orders can be applied for to protect you and your children.

​

During the current pandemic, the family courts are working very hard to avoid physical hearings and are arranging telephone or video hearings where possible.

Children Services

“Sometimes we used to make paper aeroplanes and throw them out of our window. We thought someone might pick them up and come to help us.”

The words of two brothers we supported in our refuge.

We provide support and guidance for children and young people staying in our refuges and for those living in the wider community.

​

We recognise the impact that experiencing and/or witnessing domestic abuse will have upon children and young people.

​
