Domestic Abuse Support Worcestershire

We offer a free, confidential, non-judgemental support service for any individual who is experiencing, or has experienced, domestic abuse.

Our service covers Worcester City, Wychavon and Malvern Hills. We also run a male service which covers all of Worcestershire.

Our community-based service is tailored to the needs of each individual, through a designated and experienced worker, or small group support.

You can expect tailor-made crisis intervention and face-to-face support around domestic abuse including controlling, coercive, manipulating, threatening, degrading and violent behaviour.

Support can include:

  • Safety planning
  • Personalised action plans
  • Help with understanding of the impact of domestic abuse on the family
  • Support in accessing housing, benefits advice, debt advice and legal services
  • Support at criminal and family courts
  • Support with reporting incidents to the Police
  • Support with social care
  • Support in accessing other services
  • Referrals to specialist counselling services
  • Individual face-to-face support and group work sessions aimed at building confidence and self esteem

We build trusting, supportive and empowering relationships, enabling individuals to move towards achieving their own personal goals.

Through the Freedom, Own my Life and MARS programmes, either in a group setting or one to one, we also helps victims and survivors understand the complex dynamics of domestic abuse, reducing the likelihood of them entering future unhealthy relationships.

Get domestic abuse support

Unfortunately due to high demand, we have made the difficult decision to temporarily close our waiting list therefore we are not currently able to take any new referrals (this does not affect our men’s support service – please see below). We hope to be accepting new referrals soon.

For alternative support, please contact:

West Mercia Women’s Aid on 0800 980 3331

If you, or the person you are referring, is male or male-identifying and lives anywhere in Worcestershire, you can request support from one of our male domestic abuse workers. Please complete the relevant referral form below:
