WE OFFER SAFETY WE OFFER SUPPORT WE OFFER A FUTURE

Bury St Edmunds Womens Aid Centre (the Refuge) was established in 1974 to provide safety and support for women and children experiencing Domestic Abuse.

Since then we have grown to provide outreach services, support for male survivors and to work with children and young people living in the community.

We offer a range of services based in the community to anyone living in West or Mid Suffolk who is experiencing or who has experienced domestic abuse. This can range from a one off conversation via our helpline to a programme of individual or group support.

We’ve been incredibly fortunate over the last few weeks with donations, particularly of the financial variety. Lots of these donations have been anonymous, so we’d just like to say a BIG thank you to all of you! Every single penny will make a difference to the families that we help, both in refuge and within the community. THANK YOU!
