Setting up a recurring donation means we can plan ahead while confidently delivering our core support services month after month. Even a small amount given regularly adds up to lasting change.
A regular monthly commitment helps us sustain our vital frontline services and plan ahead with confidence. By bridging the funding gap, recurring partners like you ensure that our doors remain open and our crisis support team is always ready to respond when a woman makes the courageous decision to reach out for help.
For less than your Spotify subscription, you could purchase therapeutic play materials to help a young child express their feelings and begin to heal from their trauma.
That same small amount could also provide an emergency pack of essential toiletries for a woman or child arriving at our refuge with nothing.
For the monthly price of a Netflix subscription, you could stock a fridge in our safe accommodation so a mother and child can make breakfast together.
That same amount could fill a bag with baking ingredients or art supplies for children’s group activities, giving little ones the chance to build confidence, make friends, and simply enjoy being kids again.
For the price of your gym membership, you could buy a supermarket gift voucher, giving a mother a chance to shop for her children – providing essential clothing or fresh fruit and veg.
That same amount could fund a one on-one support session for a child, giving them a safe space to open up about what they’ve been through with a dedicated support worker by their side.
For the price of your monthly phone bill, you could help a woman in our refuge attend a practical stress management or wellbeing course, giving her the tools to rebuild her self esteem and start to feel like herself again.
The same amount could also provide a brand-new set of bedding – fresh duvets, pillows, and sheets – so a woman and her child are able to feel comfortable and safe where they lay their heads.
