🌸 International Women’s Day 2026 🌸

Today we celebrate the strength, courage and resilience of women everywhere and especially the incredible women who walk through the doors of our refuge.
Every woman who comes to us has a story. Many arrive carrying fear, exhaustion and the weight of what they have endured. But what we witness every single day is something far more powerful strength, determination and hope.
We see women rebuilding their lives piece by piece.
We see mothers protecting their children with extraordinary courage.
We see women rediscovering their confidence, their voice and their future.

Leaving takes immense bravery. Choosing safety, and a new beginning is never easy, but the women we support show us what true strength looks like.

To every woman in our refuge, past and present:
✨ You are stronger than you know
✨ You are worthy of safety, respect and kindness
✨ Your future is yours to write

We are honoured to walk alongside you on that journey.

Only one more sleep until Santa arrives 🤍

This Christmas feels different. It has been a year of real challenge, loss and heavy moments, and our staff have carried so much professionally and personally. Yet even in the hardest year, the love, care and commitment shown to the women and children we support has been extraordinary.

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who has donated money, gifts and time. Your kindness has helped us create moments of safety, comfort and joy at a time when they matter more than ever.

And to our incredible staff, thank you for holding things together when it was hard, for showing up with compassion even when you were tired, and for putting so much thought and love into every detail. From collecting donations, making the refuge a happy place, carefully sorting Christmas bags for each woman and child, and supporting every individual with dignity and care , you have gone above and beyond.

We are so grateful for the love, solidarity and community around us. Wishing everyone a peaceful Christmas and a safer, kinder New Year 💛

It’s not as easy as ‘just leaving’… Often even after victims end the relationship the abuse continues. The abuser finds other ways to control and harm through family and friends isolation, child contact, family courts, withholding documentation and more. Instead of asking ‘why didn’t they leave?’ We should be asking WHY DIDNT THEY STOP ABUSING?
