Referring Yourself For Refuge

If you are considering leaving and would like to speak to us about whether refuge accommodation is right for you and your family, or want to refer yourself for a space in one of our houses then please make contact with us

Currently our refuges are women only spaces, which means that we can provide safe temporary accommodation for any woman and her children (boys up to age of 16) at risk of harm from domestic abuse.

Can I come straight to you?

As you might expect, our refuge addresses are kept secret to keep the people living there as safe as we possibly can. This means that you won't be able to get to us without having a telephone conversation with one of our Refuge Domestic Abuse Practitioners first.

It's also worth remembering that spaces in our houses are in high demand, so we might not always have a space available.

If you are considering leaving and would like to speak to us about whether refuge accommodation is right for you and your family, or want to refer yourself for a space in one of our houses then please you any of the ways listed below to make contact with us

Call us on 01206 500585 - we have someone who can answer the phone at any time day or night

or e-mail us on referrals@thenextchapter.org.uk (if you would like us to call you back then please provide us with your telephone number and a safe time we can call you)
