Wandsworth Women's Aid provide a safe, effective and efficient service to women and children experiencing domestic violence.
Our objectives are 'The relief of distress and suffering experienced by women who have been gravely or persistently maltreated by their husbands or by their co-habitees or by the fathers of their children and are in necessitous circumstances and their children in like circumstances'.
In furtherance of these objectives we aim
To provide advice, support and information to women to enable them to start new lives and to make independent decisions about their future
To provide care, support and stimulation for the children and to assist in their settlement into local nurseries and schools
To assist the women to find permanent accommodation for themselves and their children, and to offer continued support whilst they settle in their new homes
To provide women with additional support and advice as appropriate according to their individual needs
