Fundraising

We are incredibly grateful to all our grant funders who enable us to make a difference to local domestic abuse survivors and ensure their voice matters

Funding matters

As an independent charity founded by survivors raising their own funds since 2014, success with grants and foundations is crucial to our continued development and sustainability. Funders have helped us create an innovative service built around survivor’s needs and experiences with a focus on preventing harm, recovering and thriving.

After all these years, we are incredibly proud of where we have got to, as providers of recovery services, innovators through our law clinic, DA Hardship Fund and combined therapy service, and our platform, raising VOICES for change through work with SafeLives, Women’s Aid, CAFCASS, Ministry of Justice, media and research work.

None of this would have been possible without visionary funders and supporters, who have supported us to build VOICES from the ground up. We are incredibly grateful to all our funders and supporters, who enable us to make a difference to local domestic abuse survivors every day, and ensure their voice matters.

We need you

VOICES are constantly seeking funding to secure our Safe Space Centre and our domestic abuse recovery programmes for Bath and North East Somerset. We do not receive commissioned funding although commissioned services refer clients on to us.

The National Police Chiefs’ Council raised a Call to action as VAWG epidemic deepens for violence against women and girls. This, along with the national funding drought, causing organisations to close their doors or minimise support to victims/survivors of domestic abuse, is impacting VOICES. We are currently the only organisation in BANES delivering life-saving recovery courses and we are seeing a surge in referrals. Safe Spaces for those affected by violence and abuse are more urgently needed than ever before. To find out how you or your organisation could help, please contact our CEO, karen@voicescharity.org who will be happy to discuss VOICES’ vision and future funding requirements.

With sincere thanks to named and unnamed supporters over the years…
