How we help

There’s no typical relationship which means there isn’t just one way we can help, however, here are a few of the ways we can support you if you’re currently in an abusive or violent relationship:

• Immediate safety planning

• Safe accommodation for you and your children

• Advice and guidance

• Ongoing support programmes and one-to-one support for you and your children

Whatever your story we’ll find support that’s right for you. Get in touch with our team to see how we can help.

What happens when you call?

First and foremost, we’re here to listen to what you’re going through and what you need to keep safe.

Then, we’ll recommend support specific to your situation – whether that’s connecting you and your children with our safe accommodation options or guiding you on how to increase your safety at home. We can provide as much or as little help and assistance as you feel is right for you.

Don’t let what you think we might say stop you from calling us. You can live a life free from relationship abuse. Our team is here to help you do that.

We’re always by your side

If you feel trapped and isolated by abusive behaviour, know that you don’t have to go through this alone. We’ll be here to support and walk alongside you when you need someone to be there. That’s a promise.

We’re open to everyone

Anyone can be affected by relationship abuse. That’s why we work with people from all walks of life, all genders and all ages. If we don’t have a programme that’s right for you, we’ll point you in the right direction to ensure you’re taken care of.

We’ll value your safety

We understand that reaching for support isn’t easy. Our expertise and experience means we really do understand how important confidentiality and flexibility is for your safety. We’ll work with you to find a plan that prioritises that.
