Women’s Aid Leicestershire Limited was established in 1974 when we opened the first refuge in Leicester to support women and children fleeing domestic abuse. Since then we have continued to provide vital assistance to all victims of domestic abuse.
Our work continues to be as important now as it was when we first began.
We run safe, temporary refuges in Leicester and Leicestershire, plus a number of dispersed refuge properties across Leicestershire and Rutland.
Alongside these, we offer specialist support to survivors including survivors from Black or from Ethnic Minority communities, survivors accessing health support via the 3 Hospitals across Leicestershire, and male victims of domestic abuse.
