Our Support Programs
We run a Phoenix Group workshop which is designed to offer support, empowerment and strength to women effected by domestic violence. Workshops run on Tuesday mornings.
We also run a creative therapy group (craft) on a Tuesday.
For all enquiries please ring 02 49909609.
Our mission is to help women and children whose lives have been adversely affected by domestic violence. We educate, support and advocate, ensuring that all our clients have access to the services, resources and opportunities available to them.
