Local Women's Aid groups in Wales can support you (and your children if you have any) with refuge accommodation and women who work for groups can also provide face to face support in the community - this is often described as 'outreach' or 'floating' support.

Many groups also have information centres where you can drop in and have a chat with women from the group about your situation or that of someone you know.
