5 Ways You Can Support Our Work

Over the years, we’ve come to realise that support for Women’s Aid comes in many different shapes and sizes and we love them all!

Whether it’s individuals wanting to show their support or businesses demonstrating their corporate social responsibility, there are many ways to show support, some easy and convenient and others more complex and involved.

In this article we’re going to highlight five easy ways that lots of people chose to show their support and love for the work we do in supporting survivors of domestic abuse:

  • Volunteering
  • Donations to our charity shops
  • The 400 Club Lottery
  • Corporate Partnership
  • Corporate Ambassadors

Ways You Can Support Women's Aid NEL

Volunteering

The gift of time is a powerful way to make a difference in the lives of survivors of domestic abuse. By volunteering and dedicating your time and skills, you become a vital part of our support network.

Whether you’re offering a listening ear on our helpline, assisting in our outreach programs, or helping with events, your contribution make a huge difference and allows us to deliver essential services to support women and their families who have survived domestic abuse.

Volunteering doesn’t just create an impact on others; it also creates a sense of fulfilment within yourself as you see the positive change you’re helping to bring about.

 

Join our team of compassionate volunteers and be a beacon of hope for survivors.

Corporate Ambassadors

Earlier this year we launched our Corporate Ambassadors Scheme giving local companies the opportunity to officially align themselves with Women’s Aid NEL, demonstrating support for our work and helping to raise awareness of and make a stand against domestic abuse through their employees and colleagues.

As a Corporate Ambassador, you have the unique opportunity to use your influence to drive change.

By lending your voice to our cause, you can help break the silence around domestic abuse and encourage others to take a stand. Whether it’s speaking at events, sharing our mission on social media, or engaging with your network, you become a beacon of hope and empowerment and your advocacy can inspire others to join the movement against domestic abuse.

As of the date of publishing this article (September 2023) we have six fantastic local businesses, proud to call themselves Corporate Ambassadors for Women’s Aid NEL and we love them all!
