Participants Feedback

"It has given me the tools to get control over my life, and the confidence to make better choices."

 

"This is the second time I have done this course. It has made me realise how far I have come. I value myself so much more now."

 

Journey To Freedom

Everyone has the right to live their lives free from abuse and we have developed this course specifically for women who have been or are still suffering from abusive relationships.


Come together with other women to share your thoughts and feelings about domestic violence in a safe, supportive environment. It will help understanding of the effects of an abusive relationship on both women and children, and raise awareness of patterns that exist within an abusive relationship and the knowledge to create change.

 

An opportunity for empowerment is provided by building self-esteem and confidence; learning how to feel safe and exploring life choices.
