What our clients say

Voices have changed my life completely. I have gone from being a victim feeling frightened of the world and nervous of everything to a strong and powerful woman with much more knowledge. My journey hasn’t finished and I still have obstacles to overcome but voices have changed my life in so many ways that I will forever be thankful for everything.

Jane

Voices have helped me to have the strength to keep going, through the hardest and most unsurvivable of times. My whole family are grateful to Voices: you are a battalion of angels, who work truly and tirelessly, to make safe lives happen.

Kate

Voices have shown me that I'm not alone, but more than that, I have people around me who truly understand my experiences and are able to listen without judgement, question or disbelief. Every time I speak within any session connected to Voices, I know I am heard and actually listened to. This is so powerful after years of being silent and having no voice or opinion.

Bella

It’s given me the hope that I can heal and move on. I don’t have to be a victim and let what has happened dominate my life. It’s giving me a safe place to be vulnerable and heal where there is no judgement but compassion and support. I don’t feel like I’m crazy anymore as voices get it they understand just what the abuse does to people and I no longer feel so alone.

Wera Hobhouse Bath

Wera Hobhouse Bath MP Speaks to Government to safeguard services like Voices, who are a life-line for survivors in Bath, offering long-term support

8,000 people experience domestic abuse each year in B&NES. Survivors need wraparound support to rebuild their lives after suffering the trauma of abuse. That’s why I called on the Government to safeguard services like Voices, who are a life-line for survivors in Bath, offering long-term support See the video of Wera speaking in Parliament here.
