Histon Netball Club are fundraising for Cambridge Women's Aid at the CDNL AGM tournament on 16 May 2026.

We believe that every woman and child has the right to live free from violence and fear.

Cambridge Women’s Aid has been a local charity since 1977, offering dedicated and specialist services to women and children affected by domestic abuse. We support hundreds of survivors each year, providing safe accommodation for families fleeing domestic abuse, as well as ongoing emotional and practical support as they rebuild their lives independently. Our support is free, flexible, independent, open-ended, and always led by what women tell us they need.

Our work is only possible thanks to the support of our wonderful community, which allows us to keep going the extra mile for the women and children who need us. We are grateful to each and every person who is able to donate to support our work. Here are just a few examples of how we can use your donation:

 Offering one-to-one advocacy for a survivor, providing her with emotional support, and clear, practical advice about her options.

 Providing counselling and play therapy sessions for children recovering from the impact of domestic abuse in their family.

 Running support groups for survivors of abuse to boost self-confidence and self esteem, to learn new skills, or to understand more about the dynamics of abuse.

 Helping women moving on from refuge to furnish a new, safe home, so that families can establish a new and independent life free from abuse.
