HAVEN

The Haven Project is a peer support group for females who have experienced, or are currently in a domestic abuse relationship, and was created to provide women with a safe, friendly, and non-judgmental environment to talk and be themselves.

The programme focuses on enabling women to manage their mental wellbeing and general health, recognise signs of domestic violence or abuse, and learn how to stay safe.

Sessions include knowledge building, art, and fun games to help women to build friendships and learn new skills.
