Summer should be a time of rest and relaxation, but for some women and children it’s anything but.

More expense means more tension, more threats, more violence. Unlike some services, we don’t close for the holidays. Instead, we work harder to support families in crisis when they need us most.

This summer, will you help them women and children at risk to face the sun without fear? Double your donation by giving during our Big Give Small Charity Week Campaign from 22 – 29 June.

Sara* was violently abused by her male partner. Through specialist support and training we’ve helped her carve out a new life free from abuse.

Her story began as a typical case of ‘boy meets girl’. “I got into a relationship and had two kids within two years of being together, and to me everything was normal, and it actually was in the beginning,” she says. But things were not as they seemed. Slowly, gradually, a subtle and insidious form of abuse was taking shape at home. Sara didn’t know it yet, but she needed a safe space at Stepping Stones.
