This winter, children near you are forced to escape domestic abuse - leaving behind everything they own and know to live in a refuge. They are confused, upset and frightened.
At Women’s Aid in Luton we give them safety and support, but we need your help to fund essential services this winter and bring festive cheer to children in our refuges during the festive season.
By donating you will help us give children in our refuges a festive party and treats, fund emergency accommodation and play and recovery sessions with our specialist children’s support worker. With your help, we will also be able to provide ongoing support for children as they prepare to move on from refuge and begin a new life in the new year.
With the festive season just around the corner, it should be a magical time for all children. As you can imagine, children in our refuges will be having a very different year. With your help, we can give them an amazing party to make them feel special." - Child Support Worker, Women's Aid in Luton
