You are not alone. Read more. It is never the fault of the person who is experiencing it, and it is a crime. Refuge is the largest domestic abuse organisation in the UK.
On any given day our services support thousands of women and their children, helping them to overcome the physical, emotional, financial and logistical impacts of abuse and rebuild their lives β free from fear. Every 30 seconds the police receive a call for help relating to domestic abuse. Help us be there for every woman and child who needs us, by joining our fight today.
Your regular gift could help children to overcome the trauma of experiencing domestic abuse. Women are often forced to stop working by their abusers, or they have to leave their jobs when they escape abuse. Your regular gift could provide economic abuse support from our specialist staff.
Every day, women escaping life-threatening situations seek safety in our refuges. Many arrive with little more than the clothes they are wearing. Your gift could go towards providing toiletries, food and clothing to help a woman through her first night this winter. Whether it's big or small, help us be there for every woman and child who needs us this winter, by donating today. We're collaborating with The People's Picture to give survivors and their allies a space to share their stories of hope and solidarity in a one of a kind photo mural.
We'd love to hear from you. Safe, temporary accommodation for women and children escaping domestic abuse with access to one-to-one emotional and practical support. If you are looking for advocacy and support to understand your rights, options and empower you to use your voice. This can be through support with a wide range of agencies including civil and criminal courts, housing, health and education.
