Saras Story

Before coming to the refuge, I had no control over my life and suffered abuse every day. I felt like a prisoner. I wasn't allowed to go out on my own. He used to constantly threaten to take my baby and used to put me down all the time.

Since contacting Housing for Women, I feel safe and empowered, able to make my own decisions for my daughter and me. My relationship with my family has improved since coming into the refuge as before I was not allowed to speak to them. Now I can contact them whenever I want, its lovely that I can share my daughters milestones with them without feeling scared.

Living in the refuge means stability and financial security I have been encouraged to go back to work part-time and to return to studying. I've even been awarded a Housing for Women training grant, which helped me buy a laptop and study for Uni.

I hope to graduate from University and become a primary school teacher. The most important thing for me is to be a role model for my daughter. I just need her to be safe and happy.

If I hadn't heard about Housing for Women, I would probably not be here today.
