The Centre was initially established as a community link for Women’s Refuge, where women leaving Refuge could obtain ongoing support and resources. Since the mid-nineties, with Refuges starting their own community support, the Centre’s client base has opened up, with a wide range of women now accessing our services. For many women the Centre is a place to gather information, work through difficult issues, be supported, learn, and or rest before going out into the wider world again. We have extensive networking contacts, and if we cannot assist you with any of our specialized services, we can provide information/links to appropriate agencies and organizations that can give further assistance. We offer 10 free sessions of counselling along with running groups and courses.
