Situation
Now living in a state of pandemic flux, experiencing heightened levels of anxiety, vulnerable women & their children are struggling emotionally, mentally, socially & financially. Inequalities have been magnified, cost of living is on the rise, domestic abuse has increased & as we welcome women & their children fleeing & traumatised by the war in Ukraine, the time for timely & tailored provision is now.
Solution
26 years of experience proves our volunteer model increases life chances through early intervention & by working alongside & supporting women & their children. Our team of trained volunteers (99% women) change lives by sharing their own ‘lived experience’ & act as positive role models. Our holistic programme of emotional & practical support empowers women; this is then passed down to the next generation of children, including young girls, building confidence & independence for the future.
