Story

Home should be a safeplace, but for many it isn't.  Two women are killed each week in the UKthrough domestic violence.  That's why we're opening a new refuge in Stafford for women and children fleeing domestic violence.We really need your help to raise money to equip and furnish 12 flats, a children's play room, teenagers room, outdoor play area and communal facilities, to give women and children the safe home they deserve. 

It is likely that we will support around 100 families a year in the refuge.  At any one time we will be able to accommodate up to 12 women and 34 children. All donations, no matter how big or small, will make a huge difference to our fundraising appeal and the support we are able to provide to women and children fleeing domestic violence.

About the charity

Staffordshire Women's Aid is a charitable and voluntary organisation that has been providing services for women and children living with, fleeing or recovering from the impact of domestic and sexual violence since 1976. We aim to support and empower women and children towards safer, more independent lives, free from violence and abuse. To achieve our charitable objectives, we provide the following services, delivered by a team of trained, specialist staff and volunteers across Staffordshire: Our Services include: • 24 Hour Helpline • Safe Refuge Accommodation • Domestic Violence Community Outreach Service • Children and Young People’s Support Service • SURVIVE Sexual Violence Service While our work is situated within the violence against women and girls agenda, we also offer services to male victims of abuse which are appropriately provided in safe, separate venues. Nearly 40 years on, we remain a grass roots, user-led organisation, placing at the heart of our work the views of the women and children we work with. We are extremely proud to have been awarded the Women’s Aid Federation of England National Quality Standard.
