Would you like to save and change the lives of women escaping violence and abuse? Refuge exists to do just that. We are the country’s largest single provider of specialist support to women and children experiencing domestic violence, rape and sexual assault, ‘honour based’ violence and forced marriage, stalking, female genital mutilation, forced prostitution, modern slavery and human trafficking. 

Refuge is a growing organisation with ambitious goals. We are passionate about delivering first class services to women, children and men and creating a more equal world for generations to come. A pioneering organisation, we deliver cutting edge projects and are expanding and diversifying services that have even greater and long-lasting impact on the lives of 6,500 women and children who use our services on any given day.
