Women and children are at the hear of their vision. They believe that violence against women & children is a violation of human rights and work to ensure that they can live free from violence, abuse and fear.

They achieve this through the way they work:

• They challenge the inequality and abuse that result from women’s position in society, providing services and resources that unlock women’s power and enable them to regain their confidence and skills to achieve their aspirations.
• They listen to women and children and validate their experiences, working alongside them to champion their voices in influencing professional practice and increasing understanding of the dynamics of abuse. In particular, they  advocate that the best way to protect children and attain sustainable safeguarding is to empower and support the non-abusing mother.
• They match women’s bravery in living with and addressing abuse through a staff team equipped to work with courage and creativity, embracing challenges and doing the difficult things necessary to meet women, children and young people’s needs in an increasingly harsh climate.
