Yes, you don’t have to be living with your partner to experience domestic violence and you can still call us.

Women's Refuge has clothing that you can have. We’ve also got toys and books, formula and nappies. You are welcome to use our emergency food until you get your financial situation sorted out.

Safe houses usually have other women, including women with their children, staying there. Refuge advocates are around during the day.
