“I was in such a bad place; my physical and mental health was so bad when I came to the refuge. Over time with the support of staff at the refuge I started to become myself again, staff helped me get on the Power of Change course, it was an eye opener, and I am so glad I did it.

​

I had help getting back on my feet mentally, staff were there for me and my children for chats when I was feeling low. I have recently moved into my own home and staff helped me a lot with the move and getting in touch with organisations involved with furniture schemes. I had help all the way through my stay, with forms, doctors etc. I can't thank them enough for the support they have given me. I actually miss being there sometimes, but I love my fresh start for me and my children and we are the happiest we have been in a long time.”
